Anyone who knows me, knows that I took a month off this month to basically eat, sleep, and live Girls Rock! I have been meeting with rental spaces to find a home for the program, I have been designing a website, doing branding and logos for the site, talking to anyone and everyone about what I’m doing, applying for fiscal sponsorship, reading about how to write grants, turning in paperwork for 5o1(3) C status,finding instructors and volunteers for our summer program, researching insurance policies..the list goes on and on till the break of dawn. It has been an amazing month! And now as I move through kingdoms of paperwork, I am finally getting on the fundraising train. Here’s what I’m thinking: Katy Perry & Jack Johnson at the Arlington or Lobero 
Now some of you will say that is the CRAZIEST idea anyone has ever had – but I’m dreaming big here, as big as I can because that’s what we’re going to be teaching these girls. I want them to reach for the moon! So here I am reaching for the moon. If anyone has any connections to these two artists or other artists I would love to talk with you and if you have no connections and just want to stop in and say hello, I would also love to chat with you. Thanks so much Santa Barbara for making this happen!
ALSO just a reminder we are still looking for staff for our summer program and volunteers. We can offer college credit to student volunteers. Check out our VOLUNTEER page for more info. We specifically are looking for female bass and drum teachers. Thanks. -Jen
