The Wildhorse Foundation has awarded a generous grant for $10,000 to the Oregon East Symphony Music Academy. The funds will be used for continuation of the 4th and 5th grade elementary strings program that has been run in the past by Emily Muller Callender. The program was cut from the Pendleton School District budget this year but was considered by concerned music lovers to be critical for the continuation of string programs in Pendleton. The OES Music Academy Committee is in the process of raising $20,000 to support the program as an after-school activity at Pendleton High School. The program is slated to begin in early October. Thank you Wildhorse once again for supporting the youth of the Pendleton community. |
