The Pleasant Valley community is suffering a tragic loss in the drowning of 14 year old Mike Robinson at band camp. What a talented young man. It was just a couple of months ago I had the pleasure of chaperoning this young musician and my son's group at the Hershey band adjudication where PV and Mike picked up top honors for the middle school jazz band.
I’ll always remember his ad-lib solos and the infectious energy he gave the band. A young man who had a gift...a talent, and who really enjoyed sharing it with the audience.
He will be sorely missed! My sad, sad condolences to his family.
The Pleasant Valley School District has set up grief counseling at (570)402-1000 x1202
I'd like to share some of my photos of Mike from our Hershey trip and also a short video of one of his signature solos. Click on the links below...
