On Friday May 11th the Kiwanis Club of Tsawwassen and Ladner made a presentation to the Delta Community Music School of one thousand dollars. The funds will be used to provide funding for some local youth to  attend our Thrive City String Boot Camp and the South Delta Jazz Workshop. Both of these  events will be held at the school this July 2012.  Thanks to Kiwanis Club president Larry Rossiter and Karel Ley for being on hand for the presentation to our Music School Board Chair Pat Rogers.  Thanks to Kiwanis member Jim Matson for helping make this possible.

Congratulations to all of our brave students who took part in our May 6th scholarship audition recital at the music school.  We had a rather small number of participants this year, we hope in future years to see more students willing to put in the effort to prepare for this event.  Congratulations to Asha Mior and Sophia James (junior) and Sam Kim and Susan Lee (senior category).  Thanks to Allen Stiles for adjudicating this year, and for all his great comments to our students.  Thanks to our instructors John Littlejohn, Tracy Neff, Garth Preston, Cheryl Carruthers and Stephen Robb for their work in yesterdays concert.

A reminder that the annual  scholarship recital audition is Sunday May 6th at 2pm at the Music School.  Allen Stiles will be our adjudicator this year. Junior category will start at 2pm, Senior category will be shortly after.   The whole event should finish by 3pm.
