Thursday, August 13, 2015

McCOOK, Neb. -- The McCook Optimists will be accepting band instrument donations from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday in the McCook High School band room.

Donors should follow the driveway between the high school and junior high on West Seventh street to the parking lot behind the high school, through the double doors to the band room.

Organizers are hoping for donated flutes, clarinets, saxophones, trombones, trumpets and snare drums.

They will be made available to students at McCook Public Schools and St. Patrick's School whose families can't afford to purchase instruments, according to band instructors Donita Priebe at McCook Public Schools and Lori Hilker at St. Patrick's School.
