Incoming fifth graders at Arlington, Deep Springs, Dixie, Mary Todd, Maxwell, Northern, Russell Cave, Sandersville and Yates elementary schools will soon get a chance to learn to play a band instrument free of charge.
No experience necessary.
The fun begins with May 31 from 4-8 p.m. at Bryan Station High School. That night, youths try out various instruments, and parents can rent equipment from various on-site music shops.
Parents should be ready to pay the first monthly rental fee, which ranges between $25 and $40. Instruments can be also be rented from Fayette County Public Schools for $25, but those instruments are in limited supply. Preference goes to students who qualify for the free or reduced lunch program.
Also that evening, students can sign up to attend the Northside Band Academy camp which will be held at Bryan Station 6-9 p.m. Aug. 1-4.
For those who can't make it on May 31, call Bryan Station band directors at (859) 381-3311 to schedule an appointment for a Monday evening throughout the summer.
