Thank you so much for all your support! “Piano Parents” deserve much credit for what their child is able to accomplish. Your encouragement and time are of utmost importance and I thank you for it! As always, let’s give these hard-working students something to look forward to. Our recital is the “World Series” of piano.

(Who would practice anything without a game once in awhile?) 🙂

Thanks again for the privilege of teaching your son/daughter to play.

The students also helped to raise money to support our 20th Anniversary Recital this January with complete success. They have collected enough funds to cover many of our show’s expenses, allowing us to open our show to the public with FREE ADMISSION for the 20th year in a row.

THANK YOU ALL for helping to support our 20th Annual Piano Recital! Your efforts are appreciated – this should be our greatest show yet!!

We’re going to try something new this year – cookie sales! And I don’t mean just *any* little cookies – I mean DEB’S BAKERY COOKIES! These things are not only fantastic, they are HUGE! Here’s the plan: Students will be able to help defray the ever rising costs of our Annual Piano Recital – building use costs, insurance, printing and advertising, just to name the big expenditures. PLUS – students will receive credit for each dozen cookies they sell, which will go toward earning books and sheet music, either for the recital or just for fun!

This week a “shopping list” was sent home with each student to decide which book(s) they may like to earn. They will earn one book or two pieces of sheet music for selling 6 dozen cookies. The more they sell, the more books/sheets they can earn. High sellers may even be able to put their credits toward bigger items like a metronome or music bag.

Cookie order forms will go home with the students the week of October 4-6 and must be returned in two weeks – the week of October 18-20. Fresh cookies will then be available for pickup beginning the following Tuesday (OCTOBER 25) at 11:00 a.m., or whenever you are at your lesson the week of October 25-27.

We know that you will LOVE these cookies! May I recommend the snickerdoodles?

NOTE: The two boxes represent ONE DOZEN. There is 1/2 dozen cookies in EACH BOX.
