Here is a list of the upcoming events for the Wauseon Bands:
May 5 – Middle School Band Concert The 6th, 7th & 8th Grade bands will perform.

The finale for the concert will feature the 8th Grade Band performing an arrangement of “Carnival of Venice”. Soloists will be 8th Graders Paige Moden (Trombone), Lucas Blanchong (Tuba), Karli Callahan (Bassoon) and Lance Jutze (Clarinet). The concert starts at 7pm in the WMS Cafetorium.
