Audubon Talent show, “Audubon After Hours,” will take place on Nov. 9 at 7:30 p.m. in the auditorium. Admission will be free-will donation. The Audubon choir, a few Audubon band students, and a couple of extras will be participating in this event. So there will be about 60 students total participating.
    Everyone has been working really hard this week to bring everything together. Ashley Hansen said, “I’ll be in the band so I’m looking forward to watching everyone else perform.” Hansen will be playing the flute and singing a song from "The Last Unicorn" with Alaina Torneten.  Karl Segerborg, who is a AFS student from Sweden, will be joining the choir in the song “What does the fox say?”. Then he will be performing with Sean Card, who will be singing while Segerborg plays the guitar. After that he will be doing some sort of musical skit with Bradley Nissen.
    This week has been a very busy week for everyone. As things progress, the students and staff are looking forward to the “Audubon After Hours” talent show. Band director Mr. Hoffmann thinks, “The turnout will be really good and the event will be different from anything we’ve done.” Everyone is looking forward to the 9th of Nov. to perform his or her parts in the “Audubon After Hours” talent Show.

    The annual Audubon Band Smorgasbord is quickly approaching and will take place on Sunday, Nov. 10 in the high school cafeteria from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.  Senior, Maddie Christensen, stated, “The meal is going to be a little different this year. Instead of the usual ham and turkey dinner, we are serving a Harvest Brunch.” The brunch includes: scrambled eggs, sausage links, hash-browns, biscuits and gravy, cinnamon rolls, mixed fruit, orange juice, milk and coffee. The tickets are only $7 for adults and $4 for children 10 years old and under.
    The band also has a few upcoming events to be looking forward to. On Nov. 11, the band will be playing at the Veterans Day program at Audubon High School. The junior high SWIBA honor band members will also perform on Nov. 15 in Council Bluffs. Pep band at the girls and boys basketball games will begin in late November. The band is also practicing music for the Christmas concert coming up on Dec. 9. The members of the band are working hard on many different events; one way you can support them is by buying a ticket and enjoying their Harvest Brunch on Sunday, Nov. 10.
