I created new instrument tags using Canva.com. I still love them though the yellow came out orange by their printing shop. ⁦NKC Instrumental Music⁩ ⁦Eastgate6thGradeCenter⁩

Getting instruments ready to loan to students so they can be in Eastgate Bands! So excited ... 40+ year old instruments that have with stood the test of time. That’s how we take care of things here at Eastgate.

As I supervise the stairwell, I am having lots of Happy Thoughts as I observe Band students carry their instruments through the hallways!

I know what I’m going to do at 3pm on August 3rd! nkcband NKC Instrumental Music Eastgate6thGradeCenter

Support a great group of former EG students while pairing down some closets! I challenge all you former HS band students to drop off one bag by Sept 19th. ⁦Winnetonka Bands⁩ ⁦Eastgate6thGradeCenter⁩

Getting ready to clean some trombones. This bottle of Dawn was an Xmas gift from a student. Mahalo!

#tistheseason for concert prep!

Band Instrument Demo Day! Had a blast at Maplewood Elementary with their awesome 5th grade students and staff!

My own is preparing for graduation. Love this!

Congratulations to both Eastgate Choirs! You made us proud tonight! Eastgate6thGradeCenter

I’m still on cloud nine! Last night’s band performers were amazing. The Eastgate Bands of 6th grade beginners had their first concert ever. We are all proud of the musical memories we made together last night! Eastgate6thGradeCenter

Instead of candy to celebrate a successful concert, we are having a creative experience together. Images on plastic lids represents our time together. After I shrink the plastic, it will be a charm. When they see it years from now, it will trigger that amazing memory.

Turning the decorated lids into charms for band students. Handing them out this week.

Maple Park Band is AMAZING! Right off the first phrase. Fantastic job! ⁦Eastgate6thGradeCenter⁩

⁦Eastgate6thGradeCenter⁩ 6th Grade Honor Band students from Eastgate and Gateway are rehearsing at Winnetonka High School. Wow!!! Tomorrow’s concert is going to be amazing!
