The fundraising show at the Lido included performances from the Senior Band and the Montney Coulees.
Assistant band director Sabrina Brooks said the event was a sold-out show and extended a thank you to everyone who attended and the Lido for hosting the event.
“Once again, Fort St. John showed it really cares,” Brooks said.
The show is part of an ongoing set of School District 60 Band members fundraisers to help fund two band students’ trips this year. The biggest being the Senior Band’s trip to Music Fest Canada in Niagara Falls.
