Coffee House Launches Holiday CD Sales

1 12 2010

I hope you were able to attend this a.m.’s Coffee House CD launch party in the Parkland High School auditorium lobby. The Performing Arts Club provided their usual great morning drinks and treats, Sam D. and Noah D. entertained us, along with a great guest appearance of Andrew D. – all artists on our holiday CD for charity, and we officially kicked off sales of the CD to the public.

Also in attendance was Mr. Roger Ocshe, development director for Valley Youth House, the charity we are supporting with proceeds from sales of the CD. Roger also stopped by the Music Production class 2nd period to share about VYH (see Nich’s post below).

This year’s CD not only will help a great cause – trouble/abused teens in our area – but it’s got some fantastic music on it. Please check out the SOUND CLIPS and buy or order your copy today. Quantities are limited and when they’re gone…..they’re gone!

Valley Youth House

1 12 2010

Hello,
I just wanted to tell you what happened in our class today that was very special. We were fortunate enough to have Mr. Roger Ochse, the Developmental DIrector of the Valley Youth House. He told us that Valley Youth House provides homes and help for troubled teens. It supports teens who are homeless, have behavioral problems, have been abused, etc. It’s a very wonderful cause and I am so happy we are supporting this wonderful home.
