My Project

Thank you very much for stopping by this project. We currently have no way to transport small drums such as congas, or bongos. The gator case will give us that method, that will be safer for both the instrument and the students.

Our current bass drum stands were homemade by an awesome dad some years ago.

They do work, but they are very heavy, do not fold easily, have pinch points and no coating on them so we risk damaging instruments and floors when we use them.

We also utilize a music stand, instead of a trap table for utility items and sticks, because our trap table broke.

All of these items will improve our student and classroom experience and our on-the-go programs.
