She plays the trumpet, french horn, drums, guitar, and now learning piano. Has always played on a softball, and basketball team. Until recently, for fear of further injury due to the sternoclavicular subluxation. (separation of colarbone from sternum) Not sure if all this is spelled right.

Re: Wisconsin
Hello,
Are you interested in attending a BPI Gathering? I am willing to set one up this spring or summer. I thought I would send a few e-mails out to see if anyone was interested first. Thought we could possibly have a couple of speakers, with fun time with kid. I was thinking about maybe Wisconsin area, but would consider others. Please let me know what you think.
