Local music teacher and musical performer Greg Cooney will join us live on zoom to help chase those "stay-at-home blues."  Greg will entertain us with some fun music and show us how to make our own musical instruments at home. The instruments will come in handy as you and your family celebrate the New Year with your own music!  

 

A list of materials you might want to have available are: 

Any clean recyclable items paper towel tubes, cereal boxes, cardboard boxes, paper lunch bags, old metal spoons, paper or plastic plates or cups, plastic water bottles, clean food containers, jars with lids. 

 

Dry rice, beans, small stones, anything that makes a sound when put in a container.  

 

School Supplies Needed are: rubber bands, staples, tape, glue and safe scissors. 

As Greg says, if you drop it and hear a ring bring it with you and some string. 

Don't forget you can decorate your item if you have decorative paper or stickers! 

Basically look around your house for anything that combined with another object will make noise! Greg will be live on zoom and can see what you have in front of you and make suggestions for what you can do with the stuff you have already.  

 

Suitable for all ages even if you have two paper plates and a box of Cheerio's from preschoolers to adults! Program is also good for adults. Ms. Chris will also be participating with an assortment of items. Let's make music together to bring in a happy New Year. 

 

 

President Trump's meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is now over. Before the meeting, Trump confirmed there might be a possible swap of American Tomahawk missiles for Ukraine's drones. The topic was raised during a press event at the White House between Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky, who said he'd like to get the missiles that can travel over a thousand miles to fight the Russians.        Former Trump administration national security adviser John Bolton has entered a not guilty plea to his federal charges. Bolton was indicted yesterday on federal charges related to alleged mishandling of classified documents. He surrendered to federal authorities in Maryland this morning.        Big crowds are expected at a second round of "No Kings" protests against President Trump tomorrow. Protests are planned in more than 25-hundred locations across the nation, with organizers accusing Trump of authoritarian power grabs. Their stated goal: to remind President Trump and his enablers that America has no kings.        Wall Street is ending the week on a positive note. Stocks hit session highs after President Trump said he still expects to meet with China's President Xi Jinping [[ she jeen-peeng ]] later this month. A rise in financial shares also helped boost sentiment after credit concerns sparked Thursday's sell-off in regional banks.        This Halloween is expected to see Americans spend a record amount. According to the National Retail Federation, Halloween spending is expected to reach 13-point-one-billion dollars in 2025. That's up from eleven-point-six-billion dollars from last year.        The Los Angeles Dodgers are hoping to pop champagne and clinch a spot in the World Series tonight. They'll host the Milwaukee Brewers for game four of the NLCS at 8:38 p.m. eastern. Before that, the Seattle Mariners and Toronto Blue Jays will face off in game five of the ALCS at 6:08 p.m.
