Message-ID: <922522.13929.qm@web83001.mail.mud.yahoo.com>

Dear Band Parents,


  The carpool plans for getting our group to and from the airport for our Victoria trip are almost finished.  Please understand that we must account for all students from the time we leave Davis until we return.  Thus we ask your cooperation in participating in the carpool system, which includes a check-in at DHS prior to leaving town for the airport.  This drive-by check in outside the IPAB is mandatory to ensure that all students and chaperones are accounted for.


  Please contact Tia Choy (cjchoy at sbcglobal.net) if you are able to drive.  We still need:
   
  Flight 1 (to and from Seattle)
  1)    1 more driver for the first flight going to the airport (starting at 4:30 am on Friday)
  2)    several more drivers for the first flight coming back (about 7:45 pm on Tuesday).  
   
  Flight 2 (to and from Seattle)
  1)    1-2 more drivers for the second flight going to the airport (starting at 7:15 am on Friday)
  2)    1-2 more drivers for second flight coming back from the airport (about 10 pm on Tuesday).
   
  The list detailing which student is on which flight was sent out several days ago.  If you are unsure which flight your student is on and would like to help drive, contact Tia and she can give you that information.
   
   
  Thanks,
  Sarah Davis, Victoria trip coordinator

I want to highly encourage you all to attend our next big event to help "Save Our Music" in Davis. I have personally been planning this event for the past 2 months and can assure you that it will be a fun and entertaining evening for you and your entire family. We as a music community have come so far in this effort to support our music program in Davis and our goal is just in sight!  This event is one of the last big efforts that will take place right about the time of our deadline.  Please tell your friends and plan to enjoy a night of good food, fine wines, beer on tap by Sudwerk, and a line up of some of the areas finest musicians. All proceeds will go to Save Our Music campaign. See below for details:
Thank you all for your continued support!

WHAT:               Joe Craven in concert in Davis
Where:       May 17, 2008 at 7:30 pm at DHS Performing Arts Building
The Davis Schools Orchestral Music Association (DSOMA) announced today that Joe Craven will be performing a benefit concert on behalf of Save Our Music (SOM), a combined community effort that supports raising the $200,000 needed to continue all Davis schools music programs in spite of budget cuts.
The concert is May 17 at the Davis High School performing arts hall. Doors open at 7 pm and the concert begins at 7:30 pm with a special opening act of "Elvis and the E-Men". Tickets are $35 each and can be purchased at Watermelon Music and at the door.  A taco buffet and no host bar will be held from 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm in Davis Community Park for those interested in mingling with other music lovers before the concert. The dinner is $10 tickets are also available at Watermelon Music. All proceeds go to SOM to maintain Davis' outstanding orchestral, choral, and band programs for all Davis students.
Joe Craven is nationally and internationally known but lives and contributes to his local community of Davis. According to the Los Angeles Times "Joe Craven is virtuostic" and a "crowd pleaser" (The New York Times). Joe Craven is a madman with anything that has strings attached; violin, mandolin, tin can, bedpan, and cookie tin, to name a few.  Educator, former museum curator, visual artist, actor/storyteller, festival emcee and former 17-year vet for mandolinist David Grisman, Joe has recorded and played with many folks ranging from jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli to Grateful Dead Guitarist Jerry Garcia to The Persuasions.
 Learn more about Joe Craven at his website, www.joecraven.com. 
 For more information, contact DSOMA at http:/groups.dcn.org/DSOMA. For tickets, contact Watermelon Music at 758-4010.

Dear Band Families,
The Victoria Trip is right around the corner, thanks for returning your forms and payment so quickly - we are looking forward to a fantastic trip!

A few reminders:
1.  ALL students must drop off their dress blacks (in a garment bag) plus their instruments to the DHS IPAB green room on THURSDAY, 5/15 between 7:15am and noon.
Everything should be clearly labeled with your name.  We will have bins for carrying the smaller instruments so they will be well-protected on the truck. 

2.  Be sure to pack:  folding music stand, casual blacks, a warm jacket, comfortable shoes for much walking.  Rain is likely.

3. Be sure to bring:  photo ID, money for meals (3 lunches, 2 dinners), a bag lunch for Friday (no liquids, but an empty water bottle can be carried through security and then filled at a drinking fountain).

4.  You all received your carpool assignments when you turned in your passports.  Contact your carpool driver to be sure they know where you live.  Pack everything the night before and be ready when they arrive.

5.  You will be delivered to your homes on Tuesday, 5/20

Give me a ring if you have any questions: 753-3299.

Cheers!
-Sarah Davis

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to tag along to Angelo's great message and give you all a big heartfelt THANK YOU for all you have done to make this possible. It really has been inspirational to watch everyone do everything they can to help, and all of you contributed, whether in thought, spirit, energy, hope, action, or donation. What we experienced is what can come of true community action, and this is a great lesson for all of us in how to pro-actively and very positively create our future paths and ways for the benefit of everyone involved. I am beyond impressed with everyone in our orchestra programs, our band and choral programs, our parents, and extended music family that all put everything they could into reaching this phenominal goal. I've never been so proud to be associated with such an incredible group of students and parents, as we are a big orchestra family together. And a great many thanks to the parents on the front lines of this effort who are part of the SOM! Committee and DSOMA. Thank you all for your hard work and dedication to music in the schools. We couldn't have done this without you. 

As well, I know many of you supported the DSF in thier great efforts, and I want to give you a HUGE thanks for being a part of the greater fundraising campaign. With the greater Davis community effort, an incredible goal was reached, and many teachers in all areas of study, and many programs will be saved due to your efforts. I couldn't be more proud to be a citizen of this great town, and be associated with all of its amazing and dedicated people. Thank you for supporting the greater cause and helping to bring back our librarians and elem science programs, and all the other teachers that will be able to be rehired due to everyone's efforts.

>From the bottom of my heart and all my soul, THANK YOU ALL for everything. I am indebted to this community and look forward to many many more years teaching music in Davis, and advocating for music in our schools, while supporting the general community. 

Congratulations everyone, as this is our success together. Everyone made this possible, and we should be proud of what our greater orchestra family can do and become. 

Onward and forward, 

Mr. Brucker

To all Orchestra Families and students, 
This has been an incredible past 8 weeks being a part of and witnessing the hard work done by so many to save this most precious gift we have the joy of sharing together. It has been an inspiration beyond words to see how the music students, music families, friends, businesses and the Davis Community as a whole stepped up to say we want and hold dear the music in our schools!! 
Last night I had the honor of standing along with my music colleagues and members of DSOMA-SOM committee in font of the board and delivering the good news that music will be in our schools next year!!! A check for $204,977 was handed over from the Save Our Music members to the members of the Davis Schools Foundation (DSF) to donate to the District, as a standing ovation and the roar of applause and cheers of congratulations rang out.  It was an emotional and uplifting moment, one I will never forget. 
The collective power of all us working together to achieve an unimaginable goal is in essence what makes great musical accomplishments possible in performance. These life lessons of determination, commitment to achieving excellent results, and team work are what make us stronger as music students and as a community. 
I am proud to announce that due to our fund raising efforts we were able fund the Elementary Music Program, and reinstate the Secondary Music Teachers that were to be laid off- Angelo Moreno, Greg Brucker , William Zinn, and Clyde Quick, and protect six secondary music classes from being cut due to low enrollment. In addition, we asked DSF to redirect the bulk of the funds they had collected for music in their general fund raising to other program categories to bring back two non-music teachers for our kids.  In the end, this fund raising effort was not just for music, but for all of our programs.  
I want to thank our partners throughout this fund raising effort from the Davis Schools Foundation, our DSOMA-Save Our Music Committee Hiram Jackson, Jenny Decker, Lisa Nelson, Robert Chung, Devi Eden, Lani Fulcher, Carol Mathisen, Melissa Gregg, Sarah Rock, Sharon Premzic, Russ Hobby , Debbie Finley, Marian Bilheimer, and many more!! As well thanks to all the students and parents for your support and your unbelievable generosity! 

We did it everyone!!
Yours, 
Mr. Moreno

Thanks!

Dear Band families,
We have had a terrific time in Victoria, and are packing up to begin our return to Davis tonight (Tuesday).
The kids have been fantastic, the weather great, and the music well-received.
A few reminders as we end our trip:
1.  Your student will be given their passport while we are on the plane.
2.  Be sure to pick up dress blacks and instruments which will be available in the IPAB green room on Wednesday from 1-4pm.
Cheers!
Sarah Davis

  Hello All,

  The producer at NBC News in NY just called to say that they will be airing the story on Davis Schools Foundation and the California school budget crisis on Monday, May 26th on the NBC Nightly News which by my TV Guide shows it on KCRA, Channel 3 at 5:30 pm.

  The producer mentioned that footage from DSF video and Schoolapalooza made the final cut, so set your tivo or tune in.  I will e-mail this info to the School liaisons, Volunteer Captains, Enterprise and Bee so hopefully the kids in it will get to see themselves on TV.  Help spread the word...

  Thanks,

  Janet

Jazz Band Students and Families,
   
  OK, I want to be sure everybody is straight on the Jazz Band BBQ.  It is for Jazz Band students (new and old) and their families.  Bring swim suits and towels because there is a pool at the Shickman's home.
   
  Date and time:  5/31 from 4 to 8:30 pm
  Place:  Ryan Shickman's home, 4204 Boxelder Place in Davis
  What to bring:
    1.  Yourself and your family
    2.  Swim suit and towel
    3.  If last name begins with A through M, then salad.
         If last name begins with N through Z, then dessert.
    4.  $5 per family to help pay for hamburgers and stuff.
         If you are not able to make it, then send $100 penalty fee to Mike Choy.  You should
         also include a 5 page dissertation explaining why what you are doing instead of this
         party is more important.
   
  Thanks,
  Mike Choy
  DHS BB President

Jazz Band Students and Families,
   
  All right folks ? inflation hit and we really need $10 per student for the BBQ.  Please just bring the money with you and we will collect it at the party.  Actually, a wiser parent informed me that I underestimated the cost.  Sorry about that.
   
  We will also need a few more tables and chairs.  If you have these, could you please contact Lesli Chuck by email (leslichuck at gmail.com) and she will coordinate this part.
   
  Thanks,
  Mike Choy

Hello parents

Oooops!

In all the planning for the trip last week I overlooked one or 2  
small jobs that need doing this afternoon (before Picnin N' Pos).

We need the following helpers:

1 person to stay at Farmer's Mkt from 2:30-3:45 to watch that the  
equipment does not "walk away."


1 person to stay at Farmer's Mkt from 3:45-5:00 to watch that the  
equipment does not "walk away."

2 drivers that can ferry students from the IPAB to Farmer's Mkt (so  
they can off-load the equipment, and then ferry them back (1:30-2:30)

If you can help, reply to


fllange at dcn.org

BB Parents and Students,
  The following message is from an Emerson Junior HS parent.  The event sounds like a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
  Mike Choy
  DHS BB President
   
  Emerson Junior High Band Boosters will sponsor a Treasure Hunt in downtown Davis 
on Sunday, June 1st. Participants will solve clues that lead them through the 
city streets to uncover the answers to a list of questions. Tickets will be 
available for $5 (for a team of 1-5 people) starting at 1 pm on June 1st at the 
E Street Plaza. The Emerson Junior High Jazz Band will entertain teams from 1:15 
pm until 2 pm when clues will be distributed and the Treasure Hunt will begin. 
Clues will be designed for either the Youth (age 11-15) or Adult/Family age 
groups. Answers will be scored at 4 pm and prizes will be awarded to winners in 
each of those age groups. Come out for an enjoyable afternoon with a team of 
family or friends. Proceeds support music education at the school. Call 
(530)758-2956 or (530) 756-2759 for information.

Hello band family

It has been brought to my attention that there have been 2 different  
dates given for the DHS Jazz Band concert, Jazz on A Summer's Eve.

The OFFICIAL DATE IS FRIDAY, JUNE 6, 7:30 p.m. in the DHS Theater.
