Basswood Elementary School 5th Grade, Maple Grove, Minnesota, MN
It never seems to amaze me how quickly kids grow up, feels like a few months ago when kids started to go to the Basswood Elementary school in Maple Grove, Minnesota, MN and just a few years later they are about to go to Middle School.
Practice .. practice … practice ….
Basswood elementary held its orchestra concert on May 10th, 2017, practices were in full swing prior to the concert …….. many sessions were held at the school and at home to get ready for the concert. Here is one such performance of our kiddo at home …. Soul Strings performance on Viola
The venue
