Your Viewpoint Letters to the Editor
Kudos to JJHS band and UIL efforts

By JIM CASHMAN Jasper

On April 3 my wife and I, my son and grandson, went to Port Neches High School to listen to the Jasper Junior High band play in the concert sponsored by Region X UIL.

Our band did very well and the music was beautiful. We went because our granddaugther plays in this band.

I want to thank Ms. Parma who directs this band. I also want to thank the other band directors and the school administration for making this possible.

Jasper is already renown for its fine athletic teams. Now, through music, we are getting a name for ourselves as a center of culture in this area. Keep it up. Letters to editor criteria announced
