SINT MAARTEN (PHILIPSBURG) – Band Leader Youmay Dormoy extended thanks to Dion Wright-Nelson and Jeffery Tribble Jr. who conducted a Band intensive exclusively for members of Generation New Status STM Drum band during the midterm break.
Twenty-five band members participated in the intensive and were taught cadences, equipment care, discipline, leadership and Countdown techniques. As a result of this successful workshop Generation New Status and the Musicianship will collaborate on future workshops and both organizations are in discussions for several GNS members to participate in future cultural exchange workshops in Washington.
Generation New Status STM is grateful to the sponsors of this Band Intensive for their support: Holland House Beach Hotel, Shep Sheppard and MAHO group of Companies, Coaches Debbie Milton, Simeon Brooks, and Marisol Wilson, Ari Sutton of Art Saves Lives Foundation, Parents and Band members. Dormoy remains committed to improving the band and offering these workshops to assist its members.
