Please consider helping a member of the pep band

A fine young man named Ricky Valentin has joined one of the elite drum and bugle corps in the country, the 10 time national champion Cadets. The time commitment is enormous and the program is demanding. While in college at UConn, Ricky will have to travel on weekends to drill for this summer's competitions all while taking classes and playing in the the marching band and pep bands for UConn athletics. Please consider making a donation to support him and defray the travel costs for his Cadets experience.

I notified my grandson who is treasurer of NE Kkpsi and is in contact with many former band members. He is not familiar with Cadets or now members of theUCMB. I told him to call Dr Mills. Hopefully mygrandson can help.
