Support Tyler's Musical Journey to Italy

My name is Kristin, I am Tyler's mom. Tyler has been playing the trombone for the past 3 years. He will be starting High School this year. He has already become a part of the high school marching band and they will be traveling to Italy to perform in the Rome New Year's parade on January 1st, 2025.

From the moment Tyler started 6th grade band, he knew he wanted to play the trombone. In the past, he had played baseball and took karate classes, but it was not until he discovered band that he found his passion and his people. We have noticed so much growth in his personality and his overall joy in playing music. Tyler has been working very hard over the past 3 years as shown by his accomplishments including becoming a part of the Trickum Middle School symphonic winds ensemble. Over the past two years, he has been invited to play at the midfest band performance, District honor band, Jazz Honor Band and this year his audition performance earned him a spot as part of the Georgia state band. As Tyler completed his middle school band experience, he was also awarded the directors award from his teachers.

As we prepare for this upcoming year entering high school with the marching band, we are asking for some help to ensure Tyler is able to attend this amazing trip opportunity. Any donation would be greatly appreciated.
