Beer Barrel Polka

Did you know that the first time the Beer Barrel Polka was heard, World War Two was going on? This song went past any language barrier, and it didn't matter who's alliance you were with, everyone loved the song. The Wishek Band  will join the ranks of The Andrews Sisters, the Glen Miller Orchestra and Lawrence Welk as we play this for Sauerkraut Day October 10th here in Wishek.

Here is the debut of the fabulous fourth grade playing "Gently Sleep" today.

We had a little fun when the Preschool kids were in music this week. The children created a musical puppet show with the song Five Little Ducks.
