Congratulations to those listed. Jay High School Concert Band earned Superior Ratings in the Florida Bandmaster’s Association competition Friday night at Fort Walton Beach High School. Great going JHS Band.
Too bad we couldn’t get a few of these bands to play in our mardi gras parades instead of the distorted music blared from the half-blown speakers on the floats.
