The Skaggs Catholic Center recently hosted school bands from throughout the diocese for the third annual Diocesan Band Festival. The schools involved were Blessed Sacrament Band, with Bryan Sullivan, director; Cosgriff Beginning and Intermediate Band with David Asman, director; Saint John The Baptist 6th Grade Band (130 students) with Jed Blodgett, Alex Cooper and Dave Faires; and St. John the Baptist Intermediate Concert Band and Percussion with Dave Faires and Jed Blodgett.

The festival started with a performance by the Juan Diego Catholic High School Band for all of the younger groups in the high school auditorium, followed by clinics, a rehearsal and a concert run through. The students then performed a concert for parents and elementary school children in the elementary gym. Afterward, faculty from the various schools formed a small jazz band and performed for the students.
