CMM JazzFest

We need parents!

The first ever CMM JazzFest will be held on Friday, 04 April 2008. Mrs. Berg's students will join us for this event. We will learn Cajun dancing, enjoy a crawfish boil, and listen to two live jazz bands.

We do not need your money, but we do need about ten parents to join us to help supervise this event.

Festivities begin at 11:00 a.m. with Cajun dance instructors. The crawfish boil starts at noon. The jazz bands from Byrd and Magnet start after the crawfish boil. We will conclude around 2:30 p.m.

The CMM JazzFest is part of an academic unit on jazz in Louisiana history. The event partially fulfills the requirements of GLE #81: "Explain cultural elements that have shaped Louisiana’s heritage (e.g., festivals, music, dance, food, languages)."
