Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Please see the below e-mail from one of Hanover’s future leaders. It
doesn’t get much better than this!
“Hello!
My name is Jake Sledziewski, an Eagle Scout candidate from Troop 38 in
Hanover. I am beginning the process of completing my Eagle project, and was
hoping to get your help.
My project is simple: I’m collecting old or used concert band instruments
(trumpets, flutes, trombones, saxes, clarinets, etc.), and donating them
back to Boston Public Schools. It is my hope that students who want to do
music but may not be able to due to the cost of musical instruments will
have the chance of creating something special. I have been a member of the
Hanover music program since I was 10, and now that I’ve begun the process
to become an Eagle Scout, I wanted the opportunity to do a music-based
project to cap it off.
I need actual instruments, as opposed to toy/plastic variants, and also, I
will not be taking handheld percussion instruments, microphones or any
other sound equipment, or anything that would not be used in a high school
band.
The collection will take place on Sunday, February 25th, from 9:00 a.m. to
about 4:00 p.m., at the Hanover Transfer Station. If you drive in, it will
be in the very back, behind the bottle collection near the charity bins.
You will see a sign labeled “Instrument Collection”.
If you have any questions please contact me at: jsledz312@gmail.com .
Thank you so much for your help.
Sincerely,
Jake Sledziewski”
Good luck, Jake – what a great project!
