The Cambridge City Band held its annual Christmas Concert at the Pritchard Laughlin Civic Center on Sunday afternoon. 🎶

The 2025 concert, themed “People and Places,” brought an afternoon of classic tunes, seasonal favorites, and laughs.

Audience members were invited to donate nonperishable items for GRACE Pantry, and Lynne Jones took a moment during the program to thank everyone for their generous support.

The band presented a scholarship to Zac Townsend, a sophomore at Mount Vernon Nazarene College and city band member, who is pursuing a degree in music. 🎵🎓

Check out some photos from the concert and read more about the event in an upcoming issue of Guernsey News!

The 42nd annual John Glenn Pie Bake is happening this weekend, with over 100 students and volunteers making 2,861 pies, all from scratch.

The event is the band's largest fundraiser of the year, continuing a long-standing community tradition of teamwork, generosity and deliciousness.

"We have a big operation, and I'm not sure everybody realizes how many people get involved. We're making almost 3,000 pies in a short amount of time, really. We're here Friday from 2 p.m. until about 11p.m., then we're back at 6 a.m. on Saturday until we finish," said Derrick Gingerich, pie bake organizer, volunteer and band dad.
