Music and smiles filled the room on Feb. 9 when the Stonewall Strummers paid a special visit to Community Living Interlake (CLI). The local group of musicians arrived with heartfelt gifts. Using money raised through busking at performances and generous donations, the Strummers purchased a variety of percussion and rainfall instruments to share with CLI clients. The new instruments were met with excitement as clients eagerly joined in, shaking, tapping and keeping time while singing along with the Strummers. The morning quickly turned into a lively jam session celebrating the joy of making music together.
The Strummers hope the rhythm continues. Anyone with percussion instruments they would like to donate to CLI is encouraged to contact a member of the Stonewall Strummers and help keep the music playing.
