(See event photos below.)
Kudos go to Fort River's beloved music teacher Anne White and all the musicians who were part of Thursday night's community event! The first ever FAMILY SING NIGHT was a huge success and many thanks go out to everyone who was a part of it.
Musicians Peter Lamdin (guitar), Brent Nielsen (stand-up bass), Sue Dunbar (drums), Paul Gunnells (banjo), Juan Carlos Carpio (guitar, singer), and of course Anne White, rocked the music last night. Thanks also to Peter Michaels for providing and operating the sound system.
Also many thanks to Judy Stern and Libby Stanforth for coordinating the event and bake sale. Ali Wicks-Lim, Iris Berkman, Shari Abbott, all you bakers and many student helpers...thank you!
Nearly $500 was raised to offset the PGO's costs of bringing MarKamusic to Fort River on March 2. MarKamusic, a seven piece Latin music ensemble, will conduct three student workshops involving song, dance, percussion, and drumming circles, and give an all-school performance. The Fort River PGO is very proud to be working with Anne White on this project and grateful to our community whose financial support makes this all possible. These are your Annual Fund dollars being put to good work!!
