Free Concert for Irving ISD
Students, Staff and Community
(November
1, 2007) Music Matters!
by the Metropolitan Winds.
The Metropolitan Winds is hosting a Free Concert for Irving ISD
students, staff, and community on Thursday, November 1, 2007 at
MacArthur High School Auditorium. The concert starts at 7:30 p.m.
The music will be quite varied and will keep the interest of the young
and the "not-so-young" alike. This will not be a formal concert - no
tuxedos on the stage; it will be a family event. Come as you are and
enjoy the music! |
