The DFJHS combined Choirs held their Fall Chorus Festival Monday night, and they did not run out of steam! In commemoration of the 150th Anniversary of the Transcontinental Railroad, the choirs wow'ed us with songs of the railroad.  From "John Henry" to "Chatanooga  Choo Choo," they didn't disappoint!  Congrats to Mrs. Lewis and all the amazing voices!
