Your contribution to the band is both welcome and appreciated, and your best is good enough.
Hello Rideau Cadences,
We’ve made it to Show Weekend! Thank you all so much for a lovely Fall Term and the opportunity to get to know you. I’ll be walking all over the place to the beat of 5/4 for the next while.
Also a huge thank you to Susan (horn), Tomas (tuba/bass trombone), and David H (tenor sax) for their help organizing behind-the-scenes!
