On April 22, 2023, in the Charles "Chuck" Arnold Auditorium, an adventurous and enthusiastic crowd and a night of amazing music commenced. Hicksville High School Alumni Foundation hosted their annual concert of Dr. K's Motown Revue as a fundraiser. This fundraiser and foundation help to raise money for high school scholarships, and worthy community causes that benefit young people. Proceeds from ticket sales and raffles contributed to this fundraiser. Hicksville High School's Horn and String Ensemble and other clubs helped with performances and backstage.
A big thanks to Dr. K's Motown Revue, consisting of the lead vocalists Natasha Thomas, Nirvana Lucie, Pat Lewis, Ivery Bell, and Kevin Keys. The musicians included Gregg Schleich, Roge Byam, Harold Lee, Wayne Cobham, Paul Korman, Wayne Jeffrey, and Craig Stewart.
Hicksville High School's very own jazz band and string ensemble members also played with Dr. K's Motown Revue, which brought another level of pride and fun to the evening. Hicksville High School supported the concert as clubs and students attended to help out.
