1 Musical Notes from the President In This Issue: Letter from the MPC President....1 Orchestra Notes...3 Band News....7 Choral Notes Summer Music Camps Northbrook Elementary School District Maple Avenue Northbrook, IL Website: net/index.aspx?nid=167 Editor: Amy Jeppsen Stern Dear Music Parents, The 59th Annual Wreath and Coffee Sale was another success! A huge thank you goes to the Wreath and Coffee Sale committee, volunteers and all of the students (and parents) that did such a great job selling! Just over $46, 000 of products were sold, providing $18,500 to support the District 28 Music program. The money that is raised provides music enrichment, uniforms, music scholarships and tour lunches for our young musicians. None of this would be possible without the many volunteers who gave their time and energy to support the Music Parents Club annual fundraiser! THANK YOU! This is the time of the year when parent - teacher groups recruit volunteers for committees and board positions. The Music Parents Club is also in need of help. Many of the current Board members are approaching their last years as parents of District 28 musicians. If you are looking for a way to support your children s activities, this is a great group to join! We would love to have you join us at a meeting. Monthly meetings are held on the second Wednesday at noon in the Homer O. Harvey meeting room in the District office. If you want to help, but are unable to attend weekday meetings, that s fine, too. A number of jobs associated with the Wreath and Coffee Sale, don t require attending a meeting. We are in need of parents who have any amount of time to give to the organization. We can find a spot to fit your schedule. Please or call me if you would like to learn more about supporting the Music Parents Club! Susan Schueler President District 28 Music Parents Club Susanschueler95@gmail.com
