Kasey Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 Great idea about the pics, Jamie! You got Vic's pic from last year, right? And my pic for my story? And my contribution? We checked out AGAIN coming this year........just very $$$$ prohibitive for the trip, but I'd LOVE to see it. Good luck! Kasey Quote
Jyoung20 Posted February 16, 2008 Author Posted February 16, 2008 Thanks Kasey!! I thought it would be a great way for you guys to see the smiles when the award is received... Quote
Jyoung20 Posted February 17, 2008 Author Posted February 17, 2008 The Shirley Irving Honorary Award has been added... Participating bands include: Bellevue Church Fine Arts Program Victory Band Bellevue Intermediate Band Colonial Blue Band Colonial Red Band Overton Symphonic Band Germantown Middle Band Horn Lake Middle Ridgeway High School Band White Station Middle Beginning White Station Middle Advanced Lake Cormorant Middle Sherwood Middle That's 13 bands with some other possiblities...Averageing around 50 kids per group, that would be around 600 kids!!! I keep praying that one of these students will grow up and find a cure or at least a treatment that will take the intense fear out of having this disease and make it chronic.... We have alot of bands so we need alot of awards..Please consider sponsoring an award. It's very simple all we ask is that you donate what is comfortable for or the amount that will pay for the award... I can promise you that it will bring a smile to a kid's or teacher's face when they receive it and the name on that award will live on in the heart of that child or be displayed at the school of the winning band program. Hope to hear from you!! Jamie Quote
