Hello!
We are just over the halfway point for our winter session, and I am enjoying every minute with you all!  Thanks for the opportunity to work with you and giving me something so fun to look forward to each Tuesday. I sincerely hope you look forward to our rehearsals, too. Please remember, I love hearing from you, and if something pops up that you want to share, you can always send me a message – even if it is something you might not think I want to hear! 😂 Thanks, also, to everyone who stopped out to hear the HASBand on Thursday!
— Jenny
