The Monitor reviews Veteran's Day performance

Great Veterans Day performance

The cheerful, well-mannered and well-behaved group of young men and women are wonderful singers and a credit to their school, and themselves.

One song, and their particular rendition, was truly amazing. The emotions evoked by the song’s lyrics, their powerful presentation, and the accompanying slideshow was so overpowering that there was barely a dry eye in the place. It was such a profound tribute to those who have served, and especially those who didn’t come back, that the audience was left speechless. Overcome with emotions and memories we were unable and unwilling to follow their tribute with something as mundane as applause; we sat silent in testimony to the power of their performance.

Thank you to the Mission Eagles High School Choir for the thought, creativity, work, practice, and especially for the emotion that went into the performance. It made for a truly memorable Veterans Day.
