R SQUARED "GIG ALERT"
Week of 7-22-12
______________________________________________________________________________________________ 


Week in WRAP
What a busy summer it has been! (and warm too!) It is crazy to think that in less than a week our concert with the students at the Neighborhood House will be taking place...feels like just last week we were starting spring and now the last full week in July has arrived!

Concert Details:
The concert will be taking place THIS Friday at the Neighborhood House starting at 3:00PM and will be completed before 5:00PM. Fresh Eyesals coffee will be available along with fine cuisines made by our very own Chef Masal Uno. The students and tutors have been hard at work during our rehearsals on Friday. I love watching how they continue to improve each week and cannot wait to see the impact this concert will have on their musical careers.

This is event is free and open to the public so we want to invite all of our friends and family! If you have any questions, please let us know!

"GIG" Alert 7-8-12

R SQUARED "GIG ALERT"
Week of July 8th, 2012
______________________________________________________________________________________________ 


Week in WRAP
The time has finally arrived! After 7 months of hard work and preparation, Noah's Eagle Scout Project kicked off last Friday morning! The main idea of his project is to teach kids at the Neighborhood House how to play the recorder. His project will take place every Friday morning in July and then on July 27th, we will host a concert at the Neighborhood House which is open to the community. This past Friday, we had 12 students participate ranging in ages from 6 to 12. The five tutors were able to run small group practice sessions, and then at the end we had a full-band rehearsal. Please see the attached picture of our tutors in action!!!

If you are interested in helping, please join us at the Neighborhood House! We ask that any volunteers arrive at 8:45AM and the practice session will end at 10:00AM.

One more thing, back in March of this year I sent out a GIG-Alert about our two friends Raven and Ivy. These two girls were the ones who inspired us to play in the bowling alley at the Christian Center. In March, they had to move to Texas with their family. This week, Noah and I sent down three of our RSQAURED t-shirts for them to wear. We told them that if they wear their shirt on Fridays in Texas, we will ALSO be wearing our shirts in Illinois! This past Friday, I was surprised to find four very green pictures posted on my Facebook wall from Texas! Check out the attached picture of RSQAURED in Texas!

"GIG" ALERT 7-1-12

Week of 7/1/2012

Week in WRAP

Happy July!! I hope everyone has been keeping cool with these warm summer temperatures. I know of one lady who has certainly been keeping her cool, Mary Jane Dowling. This past Friday, she had her retirement party at Weaver Ridge Golf Course. Mary Jane taught at Methodist College in Peoria and before she retired, she was working as a student recruiter. In fact, after meeting Mary Jane during a high school college visit, she is one of the reasons I chose to attend Methodist. Ever since I started at Methodist, she has inspired me to go above and beyond in everything I do. For example, last Fall she asked me to join her to represent Methodist College on WHOI "Good Company." That is why you may hear some people refer to us as Mr. and Mrs. Hollywood :)

When Mary Jane told me about her retirement gathering, I knew I had to do something special. Because the party was on a Friday night, my decision was made easy, bring RSQAURED! So that night, Brandon, Noah, and I gathered our equipment and headed for Weaver Ridge. We surprised Mary Jane with our lime green shirts and flowers, then energized the night with a few pep-band tunes! I hope we helped make this an unforgettable evening for Mary Jane, just as she has made an unforgettable impact on our lives.

Please see the attached picture of us from Friday night.
