We had an amazing experience in Rome. We couldn’t be more pleased with the coordination, programming and services rendered by all. The pictures are incredible and will help students, chaperones and conductors remember these incredible memories. Thanks for all you do in making this a “world class” event.

On behalf of the Shawnee Mission East Lancer Band students and parents, a heartfelt THANK YOU for the incredible trip. I’m so incredibly happy to have shared this experience with my students, parents and all of you. Thank you for the hard work that all of you put in to make this trip a success. Thank you again, and I’m hoping this is just the beginning of many trips together!

Not only was this an incredible experience but an amazing opportunity. To perform and travel to such a destination was truly the trip of a lifetime for my students. 1000 times thank you for all you do!
