(Photo submitted) They also held Dine Out days once a month, in which restaurants donated a portion of their receipts to the band. “It’s a chance for the community to easily support us,” Stawasz said. “I want to thank the local restaurants for their support,” Kennedy said. They also received a surprise donation of $1,000 from the 104th Fighter Wing and the Thunderbolt Council. Stawasz said band kids volunteered at the Westfield International Air Show last summer. Altogether, the band parents raised $5,000, which was matched by $5,000 the band raised from performances, enough for the new equipment at Westfield High School costing “just shy of $10,000,” Kennedy said. The drums were Pearl Championship Series professional march- ing drums, including five snare drums with harnesses, five bass drums with harnesses, and two quint toms with harnesses, all Pearl Championship Series professional marching drums. “These are cool because there are five drums, we had quad toms which only had four,” Kennedy said.

The combined elementary band, WHS band and bands from both middle schools will also be marching with their new drums in the Memorial Day parade. The parade will begin at 10:00 AM at Mestek, then down North Elm Street, across the Great River Bridge onto Elm Street, continuing south to Broad Street, then right on West Silver Street to Parker Memorial Park for the Memorial Day ceremony. Following the Parker Park Ceremonies, American Legion Post 124 will march the route in reverse to the post home on Broad St, where addi- tional ceremonies will be held. “I’m always proud of our bands. It’s a proud day to be out in our community, and share the talent we have with the community to honor the veterans,” Kennedy said. “A major part of our philosophy is supporting the community and honoring our veterans,” Kennedy added.

No deal: Inside Trump’s decision to walk on NKorea summit By ZEKE MILLER, CATHERINE LUCEY, and JONATHAN LEMIRE Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — For President Donald Trump, Kim Jong Un may be the deal that got away. Trump and his team weathered insults, tolerated unanswered phone calls and waited hours for negotiating partners who never showed up as they sought to keep the planned Singapore sum- mit with Kim on track. With prospects dimming and aides increasingly skeptical, Trump at first clung to his plans to meet with the North Korean leader, seeking to pull off what the president saw as a history- making nuclear deal. A self-professed master negotiator, Trump could envision Nobel laurels in the offing of the unprecedented one-on-one meeting. Eager for a dramatic moment and a bold accomplishment, Trump agreed to Kim’s March overture for a summit in less than an hour, ignoring the warnings of seasoned advisers who Dems alarmed when WH lawyer said it could backfire. But on Thursday morning, Trump determined that — for now anyway — the meeting was an unrequited diplomatic dream, his hopes appearing to dissolve in a tale of broken promises. shows up at classified briefing Late Wednesday, Trump had been briefed on the latest round of increasingly belligerent messages from North Korea, includ- By MARY CLARE JALONICK several remarks about the importance of protecting intelli- ing a threatened “nuclear-to-nuclear showdown.” It confirmed and ERIC TUCKER gence sources and methods.
