At the last few MPA meetings, discussions have been had about why the MPA does what it does and why we rely on support from our families and ask for the donations that we do.
Our Instrumental Program is in the business of educating, encouraging, and inspiring kids to be a part of something bigger than just an individual going through high school. We provide staff, instruments, music, and so much more to continue that work.
It’s about the building of great people in a great community, and has never been about winning a competition. We are constantly striving to put out great events and shows, which I think is much better than first place (although first place is fun too). I always look at the donations as an investment in the students and in making them great adults.
Thank you for your support.
