The Holy Trinity Academy Band will be hosting their winter festival concert tonight and helping to support the Okotoks Food Bank at the same time.

Cathy Reiter, event coordinator for Holy Trinity Academy band, says she hopes those planning to attend tonight's event at the school will remember their donations for the Okotoks Food Bank.

She says in addition to a pre-planned dinner and a student concert of Christmas music, there will also be a bake sale and 22-item silent auction to help raise money for upcoming band trips.

One of those trips will be to Cuba in 2019, and tonight's fundraising activities will help support purchasing instruments for students there.

Tonight's stew dinner costs five dollars and starts at 5:45 p.m. followed by the band concert, featuring the talent of band students from Grades 10 to 12,  at 7 p.m.
