Yesterday's AZ Bucket List adventure- the Grand Canyon! Rim to River to Rim, it was both awesome and challenging.
28° with fresh snow when we started at the rim, 70° and sunny at Phantom Ranch 😁
It was a great day!

Hey music teachers! 🎢
I'm doing a clinic with a local HS band later this week. Any suggestions? What are some things that clinicians have done that really made it a great experience for you and your students?
Thanks!!
