Operations
Blake Briski Eagle Scout Project: Band Room Improvements
Remodeling the tuba/drum shelves. Blake is planning to remove
shelves and construct a tuba wall in the front of the band room. This will help lengthen the life of our white sousaphones, since the current cabinet setup does not allow for easy or correct storage. (Mr. Scott asked for a tuba wall before PRHS renovations began, but request was denied by architect.)
Replacing the plastic ceiling tiles with acoustic ceiling tiles/sound
absorbing panels. This should benefit and provide hearing protection to all band members. (Architect’s cloud design unacceptable as it bounces sound back toward the floor instead of absorbing it. Swapping out the hard plastic with absorbing panels should make a difference.)
Cost estimate approximately $1,400. Any donation from PRBB would be
greatly appreciated. Any leftover donations will be returned to PRBB.
Funds will go towards materials required for the project, such as ceiling
tiles, lumber, carpet, nails, and paint.
Construction projected to begin by the end of March/beginning of April. Request motion to approve donation of $1,400 to finance project.
