Disney themed breakfast set
By Josie Sellers
[e-mail]
WARSAW – Th e River View High School
Music Department upcoming pancake
breakfast will feature some special
guests and fun for the whole family.
Th e Disney-themed breakfast will
feature costumed characters, a Disney
movie to enjoy while you eat, a coloring
contest and face painting.
“Disney is very particular with its
copyright, but I can tell you there will
be a boy and girl mouse there and some
princesses,” said Dawn Anglin, choir
director at RVHS. “Some of our kids
dress up in costumes and it creates a fun
atmosphere.”
Th e pancake breakfast is from 9 a.m.
to noon Saturday, Sept. 2 in the RVHS
cafeteria. Cost is $5 or by donation for
those under 5 years of age. Th e meal in-
cludes all you can eat pancakes, sausage
links (small donation for extra sausage),
milk and juice. Hannah Marie’s is also
donating coff ee. She explained that the
music department likes to give band
and choir students the opportunity to
travel to Disney every four years and this
fundraiser helps off set transportation
costs for the trip.
“It’s $10,000 a bus and just for our two
buses that’s $20,000 in transportation,”
Anglin said.
While at Disney, the band students
have the opportunity to perform in a
parade and the choir members sing on
an outdoor stage.
“Th is year we are adding an additional
component that we haven’t done the last
two years where the students will be able
to actually work with Disney musicians,”
Anglin said.
Th e band will create a Disney
soundtrack and the choir will record an
excerpt from a Disney animated movie.
“We like to do this so the kids have a
chance to travel and experience a diff er-
ent part of the country,” Anglin said. “A
lot of these kids have never been to the
beach so we make sure we take time for
that too. It’s a great experience for them
to be out on the road and in a bigger city
atmosphere. Th ey also get the opportu-
nity to see our craft in conjunction with
occupations. Kids often think the only
thing you can do with a music degree is
become a music teacher, but this shows
them there are many diff erent career
paths.”
