Two Stapleton High School Band Members, Jaxon & Madilyn McEntee, performed in the Best of the West Honor Band at North Platte Community College. They spent the day rehearsing together and then presented a concert in the evening. This year it was a memorable event as there was a blackout during the concert. But the concert continued as parents & directors came on stage and held lights up for the students to be able to see their music. The show must go on!
