What an opportunity

When I was in High School the Grape Jamboree was a big deal in Geneva. We used to have a Band-O-Rama that drew bands and people from all over Ohio.

One of the highlights of the parade and show was the Shaw High School Marching Band. The band was from East Cleveland. They brought their own brand of soul and spirit to our little town.

This morning I saw on the news that Shaw High School Marching Band raised $ 500k to travel to China for the opening ceremonies for of the Olympics. Wow! What an opportunity for that group of students.

I just wanted to take the opportunity to say Congratulations to the Shaw band and their parents for the hard work that they did to reach such and accomplishment.
