Funded Nov 4, 2023We were able to successfully start our after school band program on January 2, 2024! Not only were we able to have a variety of woodwind instruments join our group (flutes, clarinets, oboes, and even an alto clarinet), but we were also able to extend the invitation to those students pursuing saxophones and a few brass instruments (trumpets and trombones).
Through your generous donations, we were able to supply basic materials to ensure a successful start to our club. The compact folding music stands and the Essential Elements books are used during every practice and the reeds you provided make playing our reeded instruments possible. The conducting baton and tuner/metronome are crucial tools for our group because they help produce a steady beat to help my young musicians play rhythms accurately and in tune.
I cannot thank you enough for giving my students the opportunity to play in a musical ensemble before entering middle school and for giving me the opportunity to finally start this after school band program.”
With gratitude,
Mr. Fischer
