Canfield band, choir perform at Disney World today


CANFIELD

Canfield High School band and choir students performed in 91-degree weather at a Disney World parade today.

This is the first time in four years students have made the trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla. The trip is taken every four years, so students get to go at least once during their high-school years, said Mike Kelly, Canfield band director.

Bob Ward, a Canfield band parent, is on his third trip to Disney World.

“It’s just such a great time,” Ward said. “The kids get so excited.”

Ward said the trip usually goes smoothly because of Kelly’s excellent organizational skills.

“It’s incredible, really. Mr. Kelly did over a year of planning on this, and thank God he’s so organized,” Ward said. “Everyone knows where the kids are and where they are supposed to be. He’s very caring. I can’t express my appreciation enough for Mr. Kelly.”
