The GMS band, directed by Mr. John Versluis, performed in the Geneseo Central Park on Memorial Day. The band, along with military veterans and members currently serving in our armed forces, demonstrated our appreciation of those that fought and died in service to our country. 

We had a meet and greet for the kids at 6:30 Wednesday night at GMS in the main gym. Here is a link to the end of year video:
