My Project

We are excited that we have a new guitar club and now we're ready to add some electric guitars and equipment to our club. We have 21 students who are jamming and we know that by adding electric, our group will grow even more. We're excited to partner with the other music club at our school to work on an ensemble for the January 16th ribbon cutting of our new library maker space where we will perform for the Mayor and our school's chancellor. We hope that we can get some donations to make our music club really amp up!
