This past weekend, a handful of Rock Port brass musicians went to Maryville, Missouri, to take part in the Northwest Missouri State University Brass Festival. Everyone had a great time! They heard some quality groups, learned great tips and tricks about warm ups and practice, and were able to perform together in a combined brass band. Pictured above, from left to right, are: front row – Abby Palmer, Jadyn Jakub, and Jack Bailey; and back row – Wyatt Huntley, Locke Chaney, Isaac Dougherty, and Brandon Athen. Kristin Lucas, Rock Port, also played with the band. (Rock Port Music Boosters Facebook photo)
