OHES Talent Show Success!

Our Oak Hill Talent Show on February 23rd was a TOTAL success!!! The talented performers were the perfect combination of song, dance, music and comedy - the audience really enjoyed the various performances! 

Thank you to the performers who shared their talents with us - it was such a fun evening! Thank you to Molly Minnick, Courtney Williams, Lauren Gursel, Beth Gunzel, Maureen Watson, Katie Crouse and Allison Senical, and Amanda Rothenbecker for coordinating all of the talented acts as well as the MC's for the evening.  

Thank you to all of the volunteers who assisted with costumes, back-stage organization, lighting, seating arrangements and concessions. We are so fortunate to have so many willing hands to make the Talent Show an outstanding event for all to enjoy!
