This weekend the Long Island Ducks had a group of special guests on the field when the Albert G. Prodell Middle School chorus performed the National Anthem before the game.
Choral director John Samonte led the students as they sang on the field just before the Ducks took on the Staten Island FerryHawks. With families and fans in the stands, the performance was a proud moment for both the students and the school community.
The experience highlighted the importance of music education and gave students a real-world opportunity to showcase their skills in a professional setting. The Shoreham Wading River school district said "Special thanks to WHAM for generously sponsoring custom performance T-shirts that helped the students look and feel like a team. The Shoreham-Wading River Central School District celebrates this incredible achievement and applauds the students, families, and community members who made it all possible."
