Calling all musicians!
Thank You for the Music Society and the Langley School District Foundation are excited to launch the Practice-A-Thon to support music students and teachers in the Langley School District. This year’s Practice-A-Thon will take place from May 10-24, 2021. Musicians (students) register online with a commitment to practice for a specific amount of time over 15 days. Family and friends are encouraged to pledge students to support the goal of purchasing new acoustic, hybrid and stage pianos for schools throughout the Langley School District.
Everyone is welcome to participate! Re-commit to regular practicing, return to your instrument, or pick up a new one. The Practice-A-Thon helps strengthen practice habits, while also helping support public school students being able to access music education. Plus, there are fabulous prizes up for grabs! The top-three fundraisers will receive our amazing, music-themed grand prizes, and every Practice-A-Thon participant who raises $15+ will be entered into a draw for even more great prizes.
