Mark yesterday's painting at John Hay Elementary School a major success. We were able to paint 7 rooms in total and some of these rooms are massive (14 feet high ceilings and the rooms are 20' by 30'!!) The principal said that our $900 investment of paint and supplies would have cost him between $12,000 to $15,000 if he had to go the bid route!! Thanks to our SCC volunteers, Hinsdale Central H.S. clubs; SAS, FEA and FCCLA in addition to some John Hay staff, HC retired teachers, current HC teachers, Perma Seal and VanderCook Music service volunteers.
I can tell you that the Principal, Mr. Williams was thrilled with the outcome. Hey, saving the school some money and brightening up the classrooms for the students and staff will surely put some smiles on many of their faces. This is a wonderful school with great things taking place.
The Jazz Benefit is just around the corner!!! Head to the Hinsdale Community House at Madison and 8th St. in Hinsdale for some wonderful Jazz performed by the various Hinsdale Central Jazz groups and the Chamber Choir. It is bound to be a wonderful time. Speaking of time, the program starts at 7:00. Hope to see everyone who has a profound love of music tomorrow night, April 29th. You can't beat the $5 admission. Have an instrument to donate...I can put it to great use!
