This is how our story ends...

To the Crusaders' Junior drumline I am prouder of you then I can put into words. Life is about the journeys we take more then the destination. I have spend sometime after yesterdays show to think about it and it is truly amazing what you all have achieved. Playing wise you guys have come so far in the last 9 months. There is not one experienced drummer in the whole group. Most important to me you guys have become a very close group of kids and have truly found a place where you belong and can now grow as people over the next 3 years in high school. I can see how much you all truly care and love each other. 9 months ago you started mostly as strangers and now you are family. Congratulations and thank you for all the hard work.

To the Crusaders' Varsity drumline and rock band. To say this has been our most challenging season in our very short history would be in understatement. I would like to truly thank you guys for supporting the numerous times this year when things where way out of my comfort zone and when I fell. Every time I fell you guys where the ones who picked me up. We tried something different this year with a goal of putting on a rocking show, connecting with the audience and taking them on a journey. The result of yesterdays show was a true reflection of the journey we have taken together. Through out the performance you guys supported each other, no one stuck out it was one beautiful blend of music. You guys connected with each other and most importantly with your audience. Before the show I asked you guy to not hold back to leave yourself and you hearts on the floor, and even the people at the back of the audience felt it. I could not have asked for anything else. I loved watching you guys perform yesterday, just sitting here thinking about it I am starting to tear up...okay. The last thing I ask of you guys is to leave no doubt, and that is what you did. To all our age out, you are an amazing group of young people who can do anything you guys put your minds to. I have seen you guys band together to over come challenge after challenge. It has been a truly pleasure to have been able to be a part of your life and I really hope that this is not where out story ends together.

To all the people who have come out and supported the Crusaders THANK YOU. We would not be who we are today without you.

To my friends and family at MM Robinson Congratulations on regaining your tile. But more importantly on sticking with each other through everything you guys have faced. I am impress with your abilities as musician but of the kind of people you have become. I wish I could have been with you more. Thank you for the memories.

To my Impact Family and my Family you truly are. We started this season trying to do something different. You put in a lot of work to make it happen and I truly appreciate it. But with the input of you guys I learned that what we where already doing is what we need to keep doing. I have learned that we are who we are, and who we are in a great group of people who love to drum together and have a lot of fun. It was amazing to have the whole Impact family in the same room for the championship performance. I am so excited for Impact's future and the growth we are planning for this summer. Thank you guy I truly Love you all!!!
