GODERICH 5244173 ' 1.800465.5503 Feature Promoting music c not be one without new Music Booster members Promoting instrumental and vocal music in Goderich and area schools is what a club known as Goderich Music Boosters is all about, said a spokesperson for .the group. The Goderich Music Boosters group was formed in the fall of 1979 under the direc- tion of then high school music teachers HughMcGregor and Al Mullin, with the help of Eleanor Robinson, for persons who ' were interested inpromoting music in the taoaeracf scrums, uuruViny Ilz,g.,., ding member, explained. • The first meeting attracted about 30 in- terested people, however the numbers have dwindled to the eight people who now form the Goderich Music Boosters. "We need people to join the Music Boosters to help the music programs in our schools," Bogie said. . Since its inception almost eight years ago, the Music Boosters have helped GDCI's music program in a number of ways as well as finally branching out into elementary school music programs begin- ning last year. The first project undertaken by the Music Boosters was the purchase of uniforms for band members. "When we started the group (in 1979) there were about 40 students in the music program who were responsible for pro- viding their own uniforms: navy skirts, white blouses and black shoes for the girls and gray pants, white shirts and black shoes for the boys. There were all shades of blue and all lengths of skirts and sleeves. What we wanted to do was to make them look like a group, with each member dressed the same," Bogie said. The Music Boosters began buying material and having uniforms made that first year in order that the students "look alike and feel proud of themselves." Since those first navy, gray and white uniforms of the Music Boosters early days, the band and choir members (which total about 140 students) at GDCI now proudly wear black and white tuxeodos bought by the Music Boosters and rented by each stu- dent at a cost of $25 per year. At a cost of about $150 per tuxedo, the group has spent about $21,000 since 1983 purchasing tux- eodos for members of the stage band, jazz choir, intermediate band and senior con- cert band. Not only have the Music Boosters pur- chased uniforms for the students, they also help students with the cost of exchange trips and concert advertising, said Bogie. Money for these and other expenses is raised through bake sales, car washes, Bingos, tape and record sales, playa- ' thons, 'concerts as well as donations from service clubs, businesses and individuals. Last year, with, the high school music program well y;latli d>rway,".--the Music Boosters decidedta girt thei expansion into the elementary: schools.' "We decided to help the music programs at the high school's feeder schools first and since Robertson (Memorial Public School) is where our Grade 7 and 8 students are located, it was only natural that we help that school first," Bogie said. Their deci- sion was also based on the fact Hugh McGregor had been volunteering his ser- vices as instrumental music teacher at the school for one morning each week. In 1985, the Music Boosters presented Robertson school with $1,500 to be used to defray the cost incurred in renting in- struments (which was costing. each stu- dent enrolled in the music program $85 per year) • However, since receiving the dona- tion from the Music Boosters, the yearly AFFORDABLE EVERYDAY A � Perm Specials ..................... ... ..

"We feel that this donation has assisted in providing a healthy start to their in- strumental music program," she said. What Bogie and other Music Booster members would like to see started is an af- filiate group of the Music Boosters respon- sible for the promotion of music in elemen- t�6d'J APMCIls- "We hope that parents of ttooerrson music students will support this group (Music Boosters) or "kart an affiliate group," Bogie said. Although the goal of the Music Boosters is help music programs from Grade 4 through high school, a music program in a second elementary school will not be sup- ported by the group this year. "We hope to go into Brookside, Colborne, Holmesville, Kingsbridge and St. Mary's but not this year partly because our group doesn't have enough members," Bogie said. She explained that after establishing a music program for students in Grade 7 and 8, the group would then concentrate on Grades 5 and 6 and finally on Grade 4. "We hope to eventually go down to Grade 4 classes in all of the schools which feed GDCI. That way we hit the entire community. We (the Music Boosters) don't support the high school solely but it �t? was the logical place to start since it already had a music program." Bogie stressed that for the Music Boosters to continue helping and pro- moting music programs across the county, more members are needed. "To date, we are lacking enough people to fill our slate of officers. We need new blood, new people with new ideas," she said. TheMusic Boosters latest promotion is the fall eoncert to be held at GDCI on nt 4. 4i, r ,,, Tlaa- i,i i, school bands and jazz choir as well'as the senior choir from Robertson school will perform. Bogie stresses the Music Boosters can- not continue their support of such presen- tations, let alone provide the necessary funds to4help with the cost of exchange trips, instrument rentals and other ex- penses, without the support of people who are willing to join the group. "You don't need to be a parent of a music student to join the group, although we are encouraging them to come out, you just have to be interested in promoting music in the Goderich and area schools," Bogie said. Persons interested in joining the Music Boosters or finding out more about the group are invited to attend the next meeting of the group, which will be held on November 18 at 7:30 p.m. in the cafeteria at GDCI.
