Andy Soucy of Londonderry, NH Deserves Our Support for China 2008

If you live in New Hampshire, and especially in Londonderry, you know Andy Soucy. He is the talented and hard-working Band Director for Londonderry Schools. The Londonderry High School Lancer's Marching Band is something to see and be proud of, thanks to all the diligent work and dedication by Mr. Soucy.

Did you know that the band has been to the Rose Bowl Parade 3 times already?

But hear this -- the band is now planning a trip to China this summer. That will be a crowning achievement both for the City of Londonderry and also for Andy's music career which started after he graduated from college over 30 years ago. There is a chance Governor John Lynch may also join the band to represent the great state of New Hampshire with pride in China.

Soucy did not have any need to prove his credentials to anyone but he really rose up to the occasion when he conducted the venerable Boston Pops at Machester's Verizon Center on December 15, 2007.

A clarification - when we say "the band," we mean THE BAND, with over 300 members!

There is, however, one "little" challenge that needs to be solved before Londonderry can send its great Band and Director to China - money. To solve that bottleneck, there'll be a fundraiser Auction Gala on March 7, 2008 sponsored by Twin Gate Farm. The Gala will be held at Atkinson Resort and Country Club, 85 Country Club Drive, Atkinson NH.

Don't you miss it!

The City of Londonderry, its talented youngsters, and Mr. Soucy are worth all our support.
