Eddie just received a letter from the Elmvale branch of the Lion's Club.. He was impressed that we had raised the money for the guitar, And the Lion's Club will "set aside" ,donate $ 600.00 A YEAR to EDHS [Elmvale District High School],to be used to supply the school with teaching supplies, such as DVDs,CDs,tapes,tabs,or whatever...WOW This was certainly unexpected.....
STAY TUNED Ollie

Hi Ollie,
Congrats to you and Ed for helping the youth learn about our instrument.
I'd gladly donate a newly released DVD about PSG Basic Parts and Maintenance to the school.
It's described here:

Let me know where to send it.

This is fantastic. I would have been in heaven if they had steel guitar in their music curriculum when I went to Port Credit High School. Good news Ollie.
