The Champ Is Here!

Carlton Haselrig, former wrestler and pro football player for the Pittsburgh Steelers, took some time on Thursday, February 23, 2017, to go into the auditorium of the high school he graduated-Greater Johnstown Senior High School-and speak to a crowd of hundreds of students from Greater Johnstown, Richland, Forest Hills, and Bishop Mccort.

He spoke at length about the importance of the willpower of a man, and how the one thing that can help you succeed in life above all else is to simply never give up.

He also spoke about his own origins in Johnstown, and attending the same school he was in at that moment.

Greater Johnstown Jazz Band

Say "hello" to the fantastic Greater Johnstown Senior High School's Jazz Band. The group has an upcoming concert. They will be performing at the First Lutheran Church on Vine Street, in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, on April 4th, 2017, at 12:00 P.M. 

I had the honor of holding their photo shoot to provide them with pictures for their promotional campaign, and look forward to seeing them in action.

A great group of talented individuals, consisting of Kate and Emily Knapp, Brady Hess, Marissa Moore, Chase Seelig, Joshua Spencer, Logan Gagan, Amber Kreasko, Luis Lache, Divine Rivera, Tyreis Berry, and Griffin Gagan,the Johnstown Jazz band has existed in several forms over recent years, including as a pep band for a period of time.

The group is headed by Mr. Eric Pfeil, a music teacher at both the high school and the middle school who is also the head of the marching band.

They will also be holding a concert on February 28, the theme of which will be "A Night At Apollo", and will focus on songs from movies, and will also feature poetry readings from other students.
