Medgar Evers is bound to have some happy students come this fall via the generous outpouring of support from all involved in the program; from patrons to the Music Parents Assn., and of course the wonderful musicians. The Jazz was smooth and relaxing throughout the entire evening. Aside from the above groups, I want to give a special shout out of thanks to our two band directors Mr. Goeke and Mr. Kurinsky, Deborah Powell - our wonderful soloist, a guest trombone soloist Mark Bettcher and Bill Mooler the evenings Emcee.
Because of all of these efforts, we raised funds, received a flute, a french horn, a saxophone and a complete drum set. This is obviously a wonderful start to creating the Evers band.
I just received an email from the Medgar Evers Principal, Ms. Ellis, who attended the performance last night. Here's what she said, "I just want to take this opportunity to thank you once again! You are always thinking about how you can assist the students and staff at Evers. I really enjoyed seeing and hearing the talent that the students of Hinsdale Central displayed. Their talent is truly amazing. The directors are doing a terrific job bringing out the gifts possessed by those at Hinsdale."
It was indeed a wonderful evening.
