So, kind of an extension of my post about hauling the spinet piano... The local high school is adding on and remodeling - part of that project requires the destruction of the band room. With my SO and I both being proud former band geeks at this school (and in college) we have been helping out when we can. So when the call game to help move the stuff from the current band room we were there. It was a mess to say the least 60+ years of stuff - some junk and some not. When storage started to run short and some were suggestion some important things be pictched we stepped up. So long story short my Van is currently FULL of 60+ years of Cros-Lex band history. Trophies, Award Plaques, banners, Tons of pictures, old recordings, boxes of older music, asorted old uniforms, banners, percussion equipment, etc. etc. etc. They will have a new band room by next school year - I figure by then we can have all this old stuff cleaned up, sorted, and ready to display. We were disgusted that some would suggest pitching school history like that - it was nice to have a vehicle I could stuff full of things and get it to safety! I quite enjoy some of the stuff that has landed in the back of my bus - makes it that much more interesting and fun. -- Thanks, Jeff '85 GL (Gertie) '90 Carat (Grover - the noble parts donor) '78 Bus (Melissa) Patty's Bus
