Lambert and Reiff were editing their swim recap for Cougar Roundup. “[KUGR] is such a great environment for creativity but also to form amazing friends,” Lambert said. “KUGR has become like a home for me and I feel like I’ve gotten super close with so many other members.”](https://smnw.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ejohnson_KUGR_7-900x600.jpg)
On Tuesday night, the various Northwest orchestras put on a concert, playing a selection of songs including “Round Dance”, “Brook Green Suite”, and “An American Folk Symphony”. Also in the show was the Extreme Strings, a group of fifth and sixth graders who are part of the honors strings programs at Benninghoven and Ray Marsh Elementary Schools. The Extreme Strings performed the selections “Dragon Hunter” and “Fiddles on Fire” and were accompanied by a few high schoolers who helped them practice the songs. It was the first time the conductor, Jeffrey Bishop, got to have the Extreme Strings play under him.
