We also encourage cash donations to the science department. We use the money for miscellaneous purchases such as food for our fish and animals and lab supplies. You can send a check for any amount made out the Egan Science Department. Let us know and we can issue you a receipt for your tax records.
As you can see, the Chorus has been MOVED! The room is a wee bit sparse, and we are missing some equipment we previously had use of in the Music Room. We would appreciate the donation of the following items, new, or used and in working order:
1. A powerful Stereo System, that is loud enough to hear over 40 people singing.
- Needs to play both CD and Cassette tape
- And if we could record using this system, with or without a microphone (which we’d also need if that was the case), and dub tapes, it would be a great bonus.
- Best case scenario, the stereo would be portable enough that we could take it with us to use at an outside concert, but if there are components someone has that will build a viable stereo system, we’d gladly accept and use them.
2. Electronic Keyboard With or without stand. Again, volume is important, but something is better than nothing… sometimes they’re able to be hooked up to speakers (which, of course, we would also need!)
3. Posters of Musicals. If you have any posters of any-era Musicals rolled away in your closet that you know will never see the light of day again, let them line the walls of our Chorus Classroom, and brighten our day!
And if you can think of anything musical that we may be able to use, we’d gladly consider them!
Thank you so much for all your consideration, your support, and any donation you may send our way!
Many Thanks,
Egan Chorus
