What an amazing 3 days our band students had at 2023 UNI Northern Festival of Bands. From Thursday till Saturday we had four of our students representing Algona along with 70 other Schools with over 327 students from Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota. Lots of practice and many performances they were able to watch. Great time and represented Algona so amazingly. Lots of new friendships were made.
Congratulations to -
