When attending concerts please DO NOT park in the fire lane in front of Lincoln Hall or Rutledge Hall. Please park in the parking lot or utilize street parking. The fire lane is marked by yellow paint, “No Parking” signs and is closest to the sidewalk in front of both schools. Please help keep us safe by not parking in the fire lanes.

2009 IMEA Festival Orchestra

Posted Thu, 2009-10-15 14:06

On October 7th, several Lincoln Hall Concert Orchestra members auditioned for the IMEA District 7 Orchestra. This is our area's "all-star" orchestra. Around 300 students audition from dozens of schools in the area, but only about 100 students are selected

I am very excited to announce that Susan K, Andy L, Emery P, Esther Y, and Michael Y were chosen to participate in this year's IMEA Festival Orchestra, which plays on November 7th at Maine West HIgh School.

A big congratulations to Andy L, whose hard work earned him the position of Principal Bassist!
