MAKE A CHILD'S DREAM COME TRUE

Please take a close look at these instruments. If any band instruments are hiding in your closet dust them and donate them to the Mossyrock School Band Department. Mrs. Sturgeon the Mossyrock band instructor from 5th thru 12th grade has an abundant group of 5th graders taking band this year. Twenty eight students need band equipment, most without the means to buy/rent their own. Mrs. Sturgeon does her best to repair and do upkeep on available instruments but has no resources to buy more equipment for the new students. With parents work schedules and after school activities, many students have little or no time to practice at home. To help alleviate the situation while encouraging students about the importance of being in the music program, Mrs. Sturgeon volunteers her time, opening her classroom before and after school so students can drop in to practice. She has reported as many as fifteen students practicing their instruments after school from 3-4 PM. She has a love for these children and the music they make. Lets do our part to help these wonderful students keep up the good work. THE MOST NEEDED ITEMS ARE CLARINETS, FLUTES, TRUMPETS, AND ALTO SAX. So take a minute to dig out that old instrument. Do not procrastinate they need them now. Box it up and send it to Mossyrock School District, or if you live in our area just stop on by and drop it off at the High School Office. You will truly be making a child's dream come true. Call 360-983-3183 to reach the school. Carlyn Jensen cjw4kids@yahoo.com
