Cranbrook's School Christmas Concerts

The last two weeks of school seem packed with various concerts from all the schools and if you haven't attended any yet you still have Mt Baker's production of A Christmas Carol,The Musical which starts next week and runs for several nights.  Many Thanks to all the teachers who put in many extra hours at this time of year preparing for these very special events.  These concerts are an important part of the Christmas Season, showcasing our younger citizens and making our season bright.  We appreciate you all.

Parkland Choir at the Key City Theatre


Parkland Grade 7 Band

How far they have come in such a short time - Well done



Parkland Grade 8 and 9 Band





Elementary School Mass Choir College of the Rockies

This concert was started in the seventies by the late Roy Barnett and is a favourite every year. Roy's wife Elsie still attends the annual event and looks after the collection of food and cash at the door.  This collection goes to the Salvation Army.  Every elementary school, many teachers and several hundred students are involved and the sound of so many childrens' voices is impressive as well as beautiful, especially when they come together with only one mass rehearsal.
