The NHS Band of Pride will be hosting a concert on Thursday, February 25, at Newberry High School. The evening will start at 6 p.m. with dinner in the Commons Area and a Silent Auction.

Immediately following the concert, we will then move back to the Commons Area for Dessert and a final chance to bid on the Silent Auction items. The winners of the auction items will be announced that evening.

Dinner is being prepared by NHS’s own Culinary Creations managed by Chef Fredrick Schwarz, the new Culinary Arts instructor, and his students! We have all been hearing wonderful things about the new Culinary Arts Program and this is our chance to enjoy a wonderful meal for only $6 per person! Please join us by completing the bottom portion of this flyer, placing in a sealed envelope with payment and dropping off at the front office at the high school.
