Wheaton North Presents In the Swing of Things

Presented by the Jazz Bands & Jazz Ensembles of Wheaton North High School

Get into The Swing of Things with the jazz bands of Wheaton North High School. This annual swing dance keeps WNHS jumping with three hours of jazz and swing music performed by the student musicians at Wheaton North and the upcoming jazz bands of the northside middle schools.

This year’s theme is The Great Gatsby and proceeds from the night benefit the entire band program at WNHS. Radio personality and Wheaton North alumni Herb Lawrence will emcee the night, which also includes swing dance lessons, a raffle* and an auction. Light refreshments are also served.

The Swing of Things will be held on Saturday, May 21, 2022 in The Courtyard at Wheaton North High School, 701 W Thomas Rd, Wheaton. In the event of inclement weather, The Swing of Things will move to Wheaton North Commons.
