This is posted from our Recess blog


Dear YEP-DC Members,


On behalf of the YEP-DC Leadership Team, I would like to wish you and your families Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!

We are thankful for your membership! We are also thankful for your participation in many of our activities this year whether our Partnership Happy Hours, YEP- Policy to Practice Conference, Inaugural Mentorship Program, our 2 EduJob events, our inaugural Education and Equity series, our 2nd annual Next Steps Professional Development series and other events. We started an Adopt-a-School program with Payne Elementary School, where we raised $350 for books for their students. We held a survey regarding your outlook in the education world. We are thankful for our writers on Recess blog and for organizations that post on our YEP-DC Postings..

We are thankful for you for supporting these events and sharing it with your friends and colleagues. This could not have been done without you. I'm incredibly thankful for the YEP-DC Executive Board and the Leadership Team for their hard work in putting these events together.. I'm thankful for our YEP-DC Advisory Committee for their advice and assistance in providing resources to our organization.

It has been a growing year for us and we look forward to continuing many of the programs we offer year-round in order to prepare your for the next steps in your education career. We will be holding our first membership awards on Feb. 2nd as part of our YEP-DC Members Reception. We ask for your nomination of colleagues who should be recognized by YEP-DC. 

We are already at work for our events such as EduJobs (Late February), Policy to Practice Conference (Early May), and other new professional development and community engagement events. Our hope as an organization is to be an assistance in your educational career. So we welcome your thoughts, let us know what events you would like to see or if you want to volunteer with us.

As we close 2016, there are changes on the horizon as we will be having a new U.S. Secretary of Education and a new DCPS Chancellor. But, this provides an opportunity for YEP-DC to be in the forefront and grow our members to be the drivers of change in education here in DC and in our nation.

We wish you the best and we look forward to having you join us at our events in 2017!

Sincerely,

Emmanuel Caudillo

[dcab-l] Woody and Dad sing "Away in a Manger"

Friends of Christmas Present:

 

This is the eighth year my son Woody and I have recorded a Christmas Carol.  Others

we've done in years past:

 

In 2009 "Star of Bethlehem"

In 2010 "Silent Night"

In 2011 "Silver Bells"

In 2012 "Blue Christmas"

In 2013 "White Christmas"

In 2014 "Winter Wonderland"

In 2015 "The Friendly Beasts"

 

For 2016 we've recorded "Away in a Manger".   Woody did the recording, mixing, and

sang both baritone and tenor;  Dad sang lead and played the guitar and bass.

I used an 09 Martin Marquis and my fretless Rob Allen bass.

 

" Away in a Manger" is a Christmas carol first published in the late 19th century

and used widely throughout the English-speaking world.  In Britain, it is one of the

most popular carols; a 1996 Gallup Poll ranked it joint second.  Although it was long

claimed to be the work of German religious reformer Martin Luther, the carol is now

thought to be wholly American in origin.

 

Please enjoy, and we wish everyone a happy and healthy Holiday Season!  (Older

Christmas songs are already on the selection list).

Hi, 
My name is John Dolan.  I just came to the area from Central Florida where I was the leader of a bluegrass/americana band called Hickory Wind Band.
I am looking for a mandolin player and a bluegrass flat-picker to finish the lineup for a bluegrass start up band in the Upper Virginia/DC area.  Are you an experienced musician that would like to be part of a band?   If so, please respond to my email...johndolan55@gmail.com

[dcab-l] Martin Guitar Christmas: All Through the Night

Friends of Christmas 2016:

 

 

Here's a Christmas song from a live performance by the ”All Mixed Up” band:

 

  Barry Wendell                 Rhythm Guitar and Vocals (bell voce)

  Ed Schaeffer                    Martin Guitar and Harmony

  Greg Nelson                    Bass

 

 

“Ar Hyd y Nos”  is a Welsh folksong sung to a tune first recorded in Edward

Jones'  “Musical and Poetical Relics of the Welsh Bards” (1784).  The Welsh lyrics

were written by John Ceiriog Hughes, and have been translated into several

languages, including English. 

 

The melody was used by John Gay in “The Beggar's Opera”.  It is also used in

the hymn "Go My Children With My Blessing."  The song is highly popular with

traditional Welsh male voice choirs, and is sung by them at festivals in Wales and

around the world.

 

The song is also sometimes considered a Christmas carol, and as such has

been performed by many artists, including Olivia Newton-John and Michael

McDonald’s duet on the 2007 album “Christmas Wish”.  Cerys Matthews sang it

solo on her 2010 album “Tir”.

 

To listen,  click below, and Merry Christmas!:

Enjoy!

Ed

[dcab-l] Danny Paisley & The Southern Grass

WOW, WOW and just for good measure, WOW again.  Danny Paisley & The Southern Grass were absolutely magical last night at the Weekend Bluegrass Concert Series in Herndon, Virginia.  The music is always stellar with these fine musicians but these folks are a fun lovin' bunch too.  The evening went by way too fast as everyone was totally immersed in the magnificent soaring vocal harmonies and the stunning instrumentals.  It truly doesn't get any better than this folks, and those in attendance can attest to that.  Many, many THANKS to Dan Paisley, Ryan Paisley, T.J. Lundy, Mark Delaney and Eric Troutman for being some of the finest people on planet Earth in addition to being superb musicians and entertainers.  Thanks also goes out to all who attened last night for their steadfast patronage.

[dcab-l] Starting up a Band in Upper VA/DC area

Hi, 
My name is John Dolan.  I just came to the area from Central Florida where I was the leader of a bluegrass/americana band called Hickory Wind Band.
I am looking to start up a band in the Upper Virginia/DC area.  Are you an experienced musician that would like to be part of a band? I need a Banjo player, Fiddler, Mandolin player and a bass player. An added bonus would be a singer or two among the players who could provide harmony and some singing duties.  If you are interested, please respond to my email...johndolan55@gmail.com 

Thank you, JohnD
