This year, for our Festival, BAMTA has chosen to host a Patriotic Festival. At the Festival, students will be able to bring donations to the Blue Star Mothers. They will also be able to stay after they perform and make a card or two for a service man or woman. This will be a nice opportunity to "give back" to our community.
Also different about this Festival:
Students will be given an assigned time to perform. They will enter the auditorium with about 10 other students and all of the family they desire to bring with them. Students will perform one by one before a judge and recieve a critique and an award for performing. The critiques will go home with the teachers, who will then share them with students at their lessons. So, plan to bring your own audience if you want to and enjoy a short Patriotic Concert on Oct 30.
Items that can be donated for Blue Star Mothers are:
- individually wrapped crackers
- breakfast bars
- single serving tune/chicken kits
- microwave popcorn
- rolaids
- lip balm
- puzzle books of all kinds
- playing cards and dice
- small bottles of tylenol/ibprofen
- cough drops
- eye drops
Location: Northside Christian Church (on Elm between 61st and 71st)
