On Saturday, May 13, Drew Larson, a Reporter from the Waterbury Republican American came to the final rehearsal for the Connecticut Accordion Association's concert at the Mattatuck Museum. Students from Wolcott High School's Band Class joined us for rehearsal, and several of us present at rehearsal were interviewed.
A fantastic story appeared in the Monday edition of the Waterbury Republican! The Associated Press picked up the story, enabling us to get NATIONAL ATTENTION for our grant funded program and concert that will take place this Sunday at 3:00 at the Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury, CT.
