Hay just had to drop a quick line to everyone who responded so generously to my plea to help our school (Trintiy Catholic Academy) when our stage got flooded.

I haven't forgot you all. The story has a happy ending. ETC has donated (14)PAR EA's, (6) S4 15-30 degree Zooms, and (6) S4's with various barrels from their "Orphen Lighting Program". Apparently, when "big" shows open up a box and the fixture is scratched they send them back, these get checked out, relamped, and set aside to be found a good home. We have a good home for them.

They are also sending out a SmartFade desk and some lightbar dimmers. Also St. Bonaventures (a big University here) is sending up followspots, tress, and bunch of other stuff.

WOW, yeah, now I just have to hope we don't overload the city power grid when we go from blind to live. LOL.

I just want to thank everyone here that was so willing to help us out in time of need. It was well received, and hopefully I may many friends internationally.

Thanks Again!

im so glad to hear that. i was getting worried. sorry i wasn't able to help out more. congratulations and have fun with ur new gear! peace! sincerely jingles!!
p.s. a few pics on this thread if u get the chance to take em would be cool!

Was going to send pics...unfortunately my daughter erased them. The gammer school musical was great, we had St. Bonaventures University give us a hand with rigging and additional equipment.

Still looking for (5) COLOR MIXING PAR CAN's with OPTI-LW lens, trying to get additional funding for this years season. Gymatoruim has been rebuilt, but do have a need for lighting the rear curtain and a followspot (of our own, so we don't have rely on St. Bonnies).

Will send pics of this winters musical, hopefully daughter will not erase. Shouts out to all my friends here on the forum.
