SIGN UP FOR CMEA ORCHESTRA FESTIVAL AT LYNBROOK HIGH SCHOOL

Dear LIMB Parents,
The CMEA Orchestra festival will be held on Friday, May 3, and Saturday, May 4, from 8 am to 5 pm. Lynbrook High School is hosting this festival, and we require your help to host the 32 groups that will be performing here. Our students will also be participating in the festival, and will be performing for a panel of judges on Friday, May 3, from 9:00 am to 9:25 am in the auditorium. Parents are welcome to attend the performance.

Even though this is an Orchestra event, all parent help is welcome. It takes dozens of volunteers to make this event successful, and we want to present our beautiful new music wing in the best possible light. So please take a look at the types of jobs available, and contact Lisa Tam with the position you’d like, the day and the shift. You may also complete the attached sign-up form & drop it in the LIMB box in the Instrumental
Music Room at school by Wednesday, April 10. There are also jobs available that require advance preparation if you are not available the weekend of the festival.

Please call me any time before 9:00 pm at my home (255-5436), or send me an e-mail (lisamtam@hotmail.com). Thank you for your participation in this wonderful event!

Vice President’s Note
Paul D. Koning, 257-4160


August 2001 Welcome to LIMB and another great year planned for more fun, excitement and great music. As a sophomore parent, I recall the past year as a time for discovery and some voluntary participation. I now find myself actively participating on the LIMB board with some very talented and dedicated volunteer officers. I am beginning to learn what the needs and goals are for our music program, as well as how in the past the activities were successfully accomplished. The secret ingredient time after time was the active LIMB members that provided their time, talent and resources! You, the parents of our talented musicians, have that precious limited window of time in your child’s life to actively participate in their musical activities. The experience is both rewarding and memorable. I encourage all parents/guardians to actively get involved with the program. I am confident you will have a great time.

As a booster there are many opportunities to be active in your child’s music program. For example, I enjoyed carrying percussion equipment on and off the marching field in a timely fashion with several other parents at a couple events last year. We had the best seats in the whole place to watch our children perform. Our annual Crafts Faire fundraiser is a great opportunity for active support and provides a great time to shop unique handicrafts. Computer skills, sewing talent, hand tool prop builders, concert concession servers, BBQ cooks, caring chaperones, fund raiser/grant writer, uniform fitter/inspector, equipment trailer loader/driver, food shopper, and whatever you feel most comfortable doing and where you see the need. All are also great ways to get to know other parents and the educators that make up LIMB and who also enrich the music program..

I look forward to meeting each of you and actively participating together this year. It’s going to be a great time.


January 2002 I want to take this time to wish all LIMB and their family a Happy New Years. 2001 was another fine year of music events and preparation for
an exciting 2002. Looking back I recall the opening of the music wing, the purchase of a beautiful grand piano, the largest marching high school band at most events, 6 bass drums, expanded co-ed color guard, wonderful group orchestra concert with 2 other local high schools, successful fund raisers and faires, and sold out holiday concerts. I am sure there were many other events that could be added to the list. 2002 will continue to be full of events and fund raisers as we focus on the China trip. Thank you all for your continued support during these events and preparation. Providing a program with many extra curricular activities takes many hands and minds! Again, thank you to all that stepped forward to volunteer. We look to everyone else who have not yet volunteered to make 2002 their time of resolution to venture out and pitch in. It's a lot of fun.

Speaking of fun, this weekend 2 university marching bands will be rehearsing in our neighborhood in preparation for the Silicon Valley
Football Bowl game on Monday. My alma mater, Michigan State University, will be practicing at Fremont High in Sunnyvale on Saturday 9am - noon,
and Sunday late morning and early afternoon. Wil Mandac learned that the Fresno State band will be practicing at Cupertino High School. I don't
have estimated times. If you want your child to see some very fine bands practicing and put out some major league sound, come on out to the practices. I can't wait. Hope it doesn't rain!

Here's wishing you and your family 2002 as a memorable one!

Cheers,
PDK.
