Celebrate America

Hallelujah! Hats off to director Allen Slater and the 70 members of the Flathead Valley Community Band as they kicked off the celebration of America’s 250th founding. Their performance at Flathead High School was excellent; 13 songs took us from our independence year of 1776 to the present with tunes most of which we all remember, including the branches of our military service to whom we owe so much for their sacrifices to the freedoms we enjoy today.
