(double click on photo for a closeup)We've got some good news and some bad news.
The good news is that Green Valley High School Marching Band is going to march and play in the Presidential Inaugural Parade on 20 January 2009.
The bad news is Barack Obama will be the president.
The good news is that Ben is in the band.
The bad news is the band has to raise $120,000 to cover costs.
The good news is that the band has 120 student to split the cost between.
The bad news is that Ben needs to raise another $750.
The good news Ben can go on street corners and play his french horn. (This is Las Vegas)
The bad news is that Ben really doesn't like to play his french horn.
The good new is we will find a way and let him be a part of history.
Make sure you watch your Televisions on January 20th. Ben plays the mellowphone in the marching band. It looks sort of like a trumpet with encephalitis. (The bell on the horn is really big but the rest of the tubing is not.)
