P.S. - As many of you may know, Don Butterfield was involved with making our TubaChristmas events very special, for many years. We will be dedicating this performance to him.
Here is a webpage from the Rockland County Concert Band website, that includes information, and pictures from some of our TubaChristmases past: http://www.rocklandcountyconcertband.or ... istmas.htm There are some great pictures of Don there, and for those of you, who don't know the Helen Hayes Hospital, you will see some more pictures of that venue, as well.
