Hey, folks -

I want to second the invitation to brunch. The chef here at PTS is Tom Barnard, who is also a CAPA parent twice over. And his handiwork has been keeping staff and students here quite happy....I got the lowdown on what the menu will be - highlights include a vegetable frittata and french toast with berry compote. Nom!

It would be awesome to welcome you folks to campus and thank you for supporting a terrific PPS program. I hope to see you there.

Hi Neighbors!

We're having a brunch to benefit the instrumental department at CAPA this Sunday, April 6 from 11-2 at the Pgh Theological Seminary on Highland Ave across from Pgh Obama (ex-Peabody). It's $8 a plate (kids five and under eat for free), and the students will be playing in different ensembles throughout the day.

If you've never been in the Seminary, I highly recommend you coming to see it. It's a beautiful campus and the room we're using is an old-fashioned dining hall with some not-so-old-fashioned skylights. It's going to be a lovely event.

You can get tickets from me in advance or just show up and pay at the door. There will be a 50/50 raffle as well, for those of you who are feeling especially lucky. :-) I have attached a flyer with my contact info if you have any questions.

Drastic budget cuts to our schools (especially for the arts) have taken their toll on our children's education, so as parents we have taken it upon ourselves to try to fill the widening gaps. We appreciate any and all support from our neighbors and friends.

I hope you can join us!

Marylinn, parent of a not-so-short "Trombone Shorty"
