The Concert in the Park was held in a different fashion this year. Due to the rain and chilly weather the BBQ was held under
the awning of Strathmore High School, and the concert itself took place in the gym. Parents from Holy Cross Collegiate
sold baked goods to help raise money for the band. Money raised from the BBQ sale went towards covering the rental of
