Volunteerism

Its been awhile since we have posted anything, but we have been busy helping out the Torrance Area Chamber of Commerce with their 2nd Annual Torrance Block Party providing Audio and Talent to the Entertainment Portion.

Up Next - Nisei Week Plaza Festival going on its 71st Year. We will be helping out the Nisei Week Foundation by volunteering our Production Company to run this event. The event is August 13 & 14, 2011 on the JACCC Plaza - Little Tokyo - Los Angeles. Become a sponsor or participate as a vendor. Contact Nisei Week for more info - www.niseiweek.org

The other project is a first for the Nisei Week Foundation - Nisei Week Festival Marching Band. The band will consist of Youth and Adults to perform in the Parade on August 14, 2011, and a mini concert on the same day at the NW Plaza Festival. The main goal is to educate Adults and Kids the value of Music Arts Education. With all the cutbacks in Schools - Music Arts is a valuable tool for learning. For more information on how to participate or sponsor: Contact nwfmarch@gmail.com

We also volunteer our time and talent to the Disneyland Alumni Club and the Corporate Volunteer Council - So. Bay for events they may require our expertise.

Stay Tuned - Up Next - Mariachi Trumpets "Larios" - Two Years in the making - Entry Level and Advanced Intermediate Bb Trumpets - A very nice Silver Finish!
