P: Yeah, Judy me too. Band Director, housewife/mother and now ww
instructor for marching band (believe it or not, my favorite thing). I'd
love to be a band director again in a small school district but that's a
catch 22 because I also love what I'm doing now. SO I volunteer with the
local high school band (Woodland Hills, Pgh, PA ) and TOM CRONE is one of
those fantastic band directors that Ed is talking about. In addition to
all the stuff Ed mentioned, Tom has for the past 7-8 years produced and
directed the Gene Kelly Award winning high budget High School musicals,
adjudicated performances and sung at student weddings. 90% of Tom's
staff are volunteers that he assigns to their specialities etc. Take a
look...
