    Summer Concert to be held on June 11

    Greetings from the MSU-West Plains Band,
    I’m excited to announce our annual Summer Concert on Thursday, June 11!
    Please join us for an evening of great music with musicians from across our region.
    This is a wonderful opportunity to recruit new members for our group. Please invite your friends, family, co-workers, and area high school students to participate. The time commitment is minimal, and all musicians who can read music and play at a high school level or above are welcome.
    Share this information, registration form, and the Facebook event with anyone who may be interested in participating.
