  1. There are several pictures of several different schools posted. Why no pictures of Hastings High School?

    1. Our staff was unavailable to cover the evening session. The official event photographer LifeTouch took action shots of all the bands during performances and posed group photos after their performances. Their photos are not up yet, but will be in a few days. Their website is https://events.lifetouch.com
