As the rest of the U.S. suffers through the last hurrah of winter, we in Arizona can celebrate all the activities we are able to enjoy.

One of these wonderful events is the annual Jazz Under the Stars fundraiser for the FHHS Music Program. It is on April 5 this year; a little later to fully maximize outdoor enjoyment.

It will once again be held at SunRidge Canyon where appetizers and desserts will be served to go along with the melodious sounds of our FHHS Jazz Band.

They are including many new tunes this year and will spotlight some lovely singers from the choir. Tickets are $25 per person and can be purchased from these fine retailers in town: Sami’s, Nonny’s, Just Bead It, and The Barber Shoppe. You can also call Betsy Noce at 480-227-6113. A raffle of incredible baskets will also be held.

Thank you to all the generous retailers in town that help make this event so grand. We hope to see you all at this awesome show. If you have never been before, you are in for a treat!

As a sidebar, the FHHS music program would like to thank Senor Taco, which will be hosting an all-day event on Friday, March 22. Ten percent of sales will go to the FHHS music program. I see a shrimp burrito in my future! Thank you Fountain Hills...you rock!
