Today, the Sterling High School Madrigals had the honor of performing at the Veterans Day Ceremony held at the Centennial Auditorium. The event, hosted by the Sterling American Legion, brought our community together to pay tribute to the brave men and women who have served our country. The ceremony opened with remarks from Mike Wolber, who spoke beautifully on the character of a veteran—highlighting their courage, dedication, and resilience. Thank you to our veterans for your service and sacrifice. Happy Veterans Day! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q5-xfL7pzy-pk0bZIs-y93BXABGGHd-n/view?usp=sharing
