MUSIC ROOM IN NEED OF A COPIER
The copier in the music room is living on borrowed time. Some (well most) of the parts have been discontinued for a while now and each time it breaks down, it becomes more difficult to bring it back to life. If you know of a business that has one they would be willing to donate to the Music Boosters – we are all ears!
Speaking of office products – any donations are greatly appreciated – copier paper, paper cutter, etc. Please contact Mary Slusser @ President@FolsomMusic.org with any information.
