One Year in The Making
If you missed the final Open Mic Night at the Coffee Loft Thursday evening you missed the surprise of the year. There may or may not have been one outstanding performance (I am a biased parent) but as a whole these teenagers did amazing. Having attended every Open Mic Night this year I can promise you the growth in this one year has been astounding. The Jr. High and High School vocal teacher, Ashley Coffman, has proven that she is a real asset to this community. I will keep the article brief and let a few (somewhat) random videos explain the rest.
Most of the following performers are minors therefore names have been intentionally omitted.

Unleash the Music
It is heart warming to be a member of a vibrant community
that celebrates the arts. Tuesday evening well over 150 area residents including
parents, grandparents, dogs on leashes and even a child on a leash were
treated to a concert in the park. The weather was perfect as the sun sat softly
behind the historic buildings in downtown Garnett during a Jr. High and High
School combined band concert on the Court House lawn. The smell of fresh
popcorn provided by the Student Council was the proverbial icing on the cake
while we listened to the classic mix of tunes artfully designed to conjure
memories of our favorite childhood cartoons.
Directed by the ever-humble band teacher, Jeff Russell ...

Practice Makes Perfect
This was a Mass Casualty Drill performed in Garnett, KS on May 16, 2011. The scenario involved a school bus full of high school students and an Anhydrous tank.While the Mass Casualty Drill held in Garnett on Monday was far from perfect it was evidence that practice is an important part of any success story. The one thing that is certain as a result of today's test is that there will be changes made in our community's emergency response plan. The reality is that the exercise was a huge victory because of the experience gleaned without the loss of a single life. I was thrilled to be a witness to so many professional heros working to perfect ...
