"Hello: I attended the Junk 2 Funk concert at the Epping School last evening. When my grand daughter (Lilly, grade 3) invited me I went just to support the event. Man, I had a blast! I was impressed with the entertaining, imaginative way the 5th graders interacted with the music, you and each other. I loved it, even though I was too chicken to join the adults when invited to play. I wished I had lol. Keep up the good work and congratulations for all the wonderful, positive work done for all the children!"
