First of all, we cannot thank everyone enough for what a wonderful job our students and parents did at both GCPS Exhibition and Eagles Nest this year! To host not one, but two competitions during a season, let alone 3 weeks apart, is an accomplishment that many booster programs cannot boast and we are extremely grateful for our parents. We are so excited to take our students out through Georgia over the next three weeks and showcase their talents and hard work! We hope that you will join us as our Collins Hill Band Family competes over the next three Saturdays! Links to the competitions schedules will be found below. Again, we are so proud and grateful to all of those who represented the Collins Hill Band over the course of the two shows we hosted!
