The Healing Power of Music
Do you have an unused instrument sitting in your attic, basement or closet? You could send it down to kids in the areas hardest hit by Katrina, Rita and the tornados. We’re taking the minivan down to the Gulf Coast.
We leave early on Sunday February 11th Bring donations to us at the February Beacon sloop club meeting tomorrow night, to our home in Pine Bush or call or email to work out another way to get it to us.
We know Bill Hudson through the sloop Clearwater community. Bill has been working on us to join him and Al Coffey on the Feel Good tour www.feelgoodtour.blogspot.com from the start. Bill came through the valley last week and asked again. Short notice but perfect timing. This trip is cobbled together on a collective shoestring of resources from the four of us.
There is also a need for kid’s jackets and sweaters. They asked for easy to play instruments for the special needs classes, like tambourines, drums, sticks and shakers.
