THANK YOU to the many community donors who contributed to the recent success of BEF’s campaign to support Cedar Park’s band program.
“Everyone is welcome in the Cedar Park Band! The Cedar Park Band is an important part of our school and our community,” states CPMS Band Director, Jennifer Stenehjem. “As the school and neighborhood changes, the band changes with it. Each year we have more and more families that can't afford to get an instrument to participate in band. At Cedar Park, we make sure that kids in need can borrow a school-owned instrument. As the need rises, and as our instruments wear-out, we are finding it harder and harder to supply instruments for everyone.”
This year’s endeavor to purchase three new clarinets and three new trombones ($2411 total) was fully funded through the support of BEF, generous donors and the matching power of the Juan Young Trust.
