I'm quite impressed. My friend, Eleanor Brown, plays in the band. I wish we had something like this in Toronto, perhaps we do and I just haven't found it. I started playing flute as an adult and loved every minute of it. I'm 79 and now into belly dancing. We, too, as you can imagine, have a lot of laughs.
Keep up the good work. Shirley Murray
I didn't realize this was happening. What a pleasant surprise!
I was in the New Horizons band in Carlsbad, Ca. before moving to Naples, Fl. I was so happy to have it waiting for me across t hew country!
Imperial Wilderness has such talented people. Wish I were one of them. Thanks to all of you, you bring joy to our park, and others.
Some are able ride bikes!!
My husband Jack and I live in IW during the winter. I do
not have any musical talent but I am so proud of all of
these fellow IW'ers and am so jealous of their talents. My
husband Jack plays the guitar and I wish he would join force
with the rest of these folks. It must be a lot of fun for
them--and it certainly is fun for those of us who can only
listen.
I am so pleased with our Band at IWCA.It has been a delight to see how much they have learned over the years.I think it is wonderful to have it and so many people enjoy their music.We sure have a lot of talent and dedicated people in our park.We are truly blessed.Thanks to The New Horizon Band
and all those associated with it.Especially to those who make it happen.
