After weeks of preparation, auditions and rehearsals--as well as a bit of nerves--more than 30 Exeter students in orchestra, chorus and band were selected to perform at the Music Educators of Berks County (MEBC) County Festival, which will be held this Saturday, January 18th at 7PM at Hamburg Senior High School. The ensembles will be directed by Mr. Joe Gehrig from Chester County Pops (orchestra); Dr. Derrick Thompson from Kutztown University (chorus); and Dr. Adam Gumble from West Chester University (band).
