Band Bandquet goes "Back to the Future"

Last week, the OHS Band Program (with the help of our AWESOME boosters) put on a great Band Bandquet, encapsulating a year that has been filled with great music, and great students. The cafeteria was decorated as only our Boosters can do, complete with a clock tower with working lightning bolt, a real DeLorean car, and Mr. Schoenbach and Mrs. San Roman dressed up as Marty McFly and Doc.
