14. A M ESSAGE F ROM … Mrs. Brochu I want to take this opportunity to thank all staff, students and parents. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to be apart of the Prairie Spirit (East) Band Program. You should be very proud of your children; as they are all incredibly talented and respectful individuals. They have reminded me why I chose to be an educator. I have enjoyed every squeak, squawk, toot, and honk… and eventually what you are hearing tonight. I would like to take this time to address individual groups. Beginner Band – you are all superstars! You are the most entertaining and energetic group of musicians that I have ever had the opportunity to work with. You enthusiasm for music-making is certainly contagious and you have made teaching music that much more enjoyable. I wish you success in everything you choose to do. Music is what life sounds like. ~ Eric Olson

15. Advanced Band – you are turning into quite the choir! You are a group of exceptional musicians and should be very proud of all your accomplishments. You show true musicianship not only in your playing, but in your cooperative learning and desire for success. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your musical journey. Music in the soul can be heard by the universe. ~ Lao Tzu Senior Band – you all should be very proud of yourselves. You are incredibly talented musicians who show a true passion for the art of creating music. I can not express enough how thankful I am to you for allowing me to share in your musical learning. I wish you the most success in all your future endeavours. Music is enough for a lifetime, but a lifetime is not enough for music ~ Sergei Rachmaninov Thank you again, students, for sharing in my musical adventure. I will never forget this experience nor will I forget all of you. A M ESSAGE F ROM … Mrs. Brochu
