Spirit of Alberta Band Program Richard Anderson, Manager of the Credit Union presents a cheque to Jerry Chatwin, Band Director J At Magrath’s final high school band concert, Mr. Richard Anderson, Manager of the Magrath branch of 1st Choice Savings and Credit Union, presented a cheque in the amount of $2,000 to support the Spirit of Alberta band program. 1st Choice Savings and Credit Union seeks worthy community groups which they feel contribute to the quality of life in the communities serviced by the Credit Union. The Spirit of Alberta Marching Band, with its 80 students, represents our community in performances throughout Alberta and the Western United States. Most of the cost of uniforms, instruments, and travel comes from fund raising and donations. This grant will be extremely helpful in meeting some of those expenses. Mr. Chatwin, the director of Spirit of Alberta, expressed his gratitude on behalf of the students, for the very generous grant from 1st Choice. “Our kids work especially hard in summer practices, and parades, and meet every morning at the start of the school year at 7:00 a.m. This extra work prepares them to perfect their performances and represent Magrath, the Province and Canada in its numerous appearances. It’s wonderful to have an organization such as 1st Choice Savings and Credit Union show its support of our young people in this fashion. We are all very gratefill.” 4 / CARDS OF THANKS \ Thank-you We would like to thank the community for their help and support during the flooding of our feedlot and coulee, and for helping get the cattle out We feel blessed to live in a community where people care for one another.
