Star Spangled Banner
Choir Students and Hemingford Public School Students may request to sing the Star Spangled Banner for any sporting event. Individual Band Students may also play the Star Spangled Banner alone or with a small group. This must be coordinated between Mr. Westover, Mrs. Arneson, and those supervising the individual event. In order to sing, you must first sing the Star Spangled Banner for Mrs. Arneson before she will recommend that Mr. Westover include you on the schedule.
