The Citizen, 2008-04-24, Page 19Continued from page 10anything. Sometimes they didn’teven have food. We complain aboutnot getting money for vacationswhile they don’t even have properclothes. I felt sad and selfish becausewe have a lot and they have a little,”
said Emily, 12.
“When we went to the school I
realized how lucky we are to have
what we have. The kids had barely
any possessions yet they were still
very happy. It felt really good
knowing that we had made a
difference in those kids’ lives.” –
Heather, 13.
The band also brought two
suitcases of recorders for the
students.
The party at the school went on fora couple of hours before thetruckload of gifts was unloaded and stored into a school room to be sorted and given out by theteacher.As the band marched back to the
resort following the party, a few of
the children marched along and
people in the village came out to
watch and call out “Hola”.
The next day, a group of band
members and chaperones returned to
the school. They taught groups of
children as well as the teacher how
to play recorder.
“I enjoyed teaching the recorder to
some of the students and bringing
music into their lives. It is a memory
that they will never forget either andI am glad that I had the opportunityto share that with them. – Tricia, 17.Director, Charlie Kalbfleisch wentfor a walk through the village on aday that there was no school. He saidthat as he walked, the sounds of the
recorders being practised were all
around him.“
I can’t believe exactly how much
we take for granted. It’s sad seeing
how we have so much and them so
little. They’re so happy though even
though they have nothing and we
could have everything we want and
still want more. I think everyone
should try harder to appreciate what
they have instead of wishing they
had more,” said Aislinn, 16.
