<< Dear Tom,
 
 My wife works in a pre-school, and we recently arranged for Sacramento's 
Black 
 Tuesday Jazz Band to appear twice for the kids....you'd love to see them 
 follow the band in a parade to "The Saints" and gather around the musicians 
 afterwards, touching the tuba and wondering about the banjo {well, after 
all....don't 
 most of us?}.
 
 Good luck with this program of yours....
 
 And remember folks.....WE HAVE TO PROMOTE & PRESERVE THIS MUSIC 
 OURSELVES...THE GOVERNMENT HAS OTHER THINGS ON ITS COLLECTIVE PLATE, AND 
MOST PARENTS & 
 TEACHERS ARE OBILIOUS TO OKOM
 
 Thanks for sharing your thoughts....
