<div style="color:#000000;font-family:Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;font-size:14pt;"><span style="font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">BSB started in the summer of 2003 as a lark, just a fun little week of playing to introduce my violin students to new kinds of music they could play, mostly folk tunes from the US and around the world. At the end of that week they informed me that we would keep the group together and that they would invite their friends to join. We've never looked back!</span></div>
<div style="color:#000000;font-family:Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;font-size:14pt;"><span style="font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Over the years the band has grown: It's gotten larger and added staff. We know more tunes, and we've added other instruments. </span></div>
<div style="color:#000000;font-family:Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;font-size:14pt;"><span style="font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">What hasn't changed is the kind regard band members have for each other and their unbridled enthusiasm for playing and sharing music with each other and with our community. </span></div>
<div style="color:#000000;font-family:Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;font-size:14pt;"><span style="font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">The energy that gathers around the Bow-Dacious String Band was the driving force leading to the founding of the Community Center for the Arts, and the band's philosophy of fostering individual excellence in the context of a group collaboration is at the core of all of our programming. </span></div>

<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">The workshops were fantastic: we played various old-time two-finger styles, traded banjos around, and talked at length about Flemming Brown, Hobart Smith, Frank Proffitt, Dave Macon, and other old-time banjo saints. </p>

<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"><span>When BSB was just getting started a pattern that quickly emerged was older students encouraging the younger ones and helping them learn how to play tricky parts in our tunes.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">The practice of seasoned players helping younger players expanded to include acclimating newcomers to the band and continued to develop until, at a certain point, it seemed that we should designate student teachers, who were dubbed "mentors." </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"> </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">In its official capacity, the mentor program has become more standardized; mentors are paired into teams--one melody player and one rhythm player--and each set of mentors is in charge of directing its own mini-band for a part of our weekly rehearsal time. Mentors meet with the director to discuss the progress of their groups, receive instruction on teaching, and just hang out and jam together.</p>

<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"><span>Kids who play in Bow-Dacious learn life skills that go beyond the tunes they play: responding in the moment, presenting yourself confidently, stepping up when it's your turn, looking out for each other, stage deportment, and more. </span></p>

<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"><span>I thought our readers would enjoy hearing about this from mentors' perspectives, so here are some thoughts that came up in conversations we had during an interview I conducted with some of them:</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"><span> </span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">RK: Being a mentor means you spend extra time and have more responsibility. What do you get out of it? What are some of your challenges, and what have you learned in dealing with them?</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">Responses to this question yielded many ideas, but one particular word popped up more than any other: patience. </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">MH: ...some skills of patience and responsibility.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">SB: Patience because working with kids is tough; you just have to keep calm and work it out.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">EH: ...to be patient and slow down to the student's level.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">PN: It takes a lot of patience to be able to sit down with a group of five little kids and teach them all a song!</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"> </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">Classroom management skills were also mentioned frequently; although the members of the band are there voluntarily, they are still subject to finite attention spans and sometimes get a little chatty.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">PN: A challenge that I encountered would definitely be the kids' energy. High energy is sometimes a good thing, but when the kids are bouncing in their seats and talking about everything but the song we're learning, it can be quite the hassle. But it all worked out after we started a method for acknowledging good posture, behavior, and taking solos.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">MH: I encountered lots of attention issues, mostly because I was dealing with younger students. Paula and I just had to keep the material interesting and change songs frequently.</p>

<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"><span>Another classroom management challenge that every teacher faces is keeping students engaged, and mini-bands are no exception.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">BMB: The main challenge for me as a mentor was to keep mini-band time fun but to also get work done. I had trouble finding the line between the kids being bored and all of us goofing off. I think that as the season went on, I got a better judgment of where that line lies.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">SF: One of the challenges we had to deal with was getting people in our groups to step up and be involved. In my group especially, we had great musicians but they were all very soft-spoken. It's okay to not be really extroverted all the time but sometimes we wanted to get feedback from the students or hear opinions. In those cases I would usually just call on people.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"> </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">RK: Are there other skills you feel you have developed as a mentor that will help you in other areas of your life?</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">SF: Mostly interaction stuff. Like how to tell the kids you're mentoring what you want from them in a clear and understandable way without being bossy or overbearing.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">MH: Paula and I always try to get people smiling and looking like they're having fun, so having a positive attitude has helped me with the new schools I've been in.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">EH: Being a mentor has forced me to be more firm with younger children, like my cousins!</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">PN: Over the summer I work at a camp with little kids. Thanks to my experience with working with the kids in Bow-Dacious, I had a good idea on how to work well with the kids at the camp. </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"> </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">RK: Do you have any stories or thoughts to share about working with your mini-bands?</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">MH: Everyone in the group teased each other (in a friendly way) like a family.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">SB: That when you work one-on-one with the kid they are really awesome and you learn a lot.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;"> </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">RK: Do you have any stories you'd like to share about working with the other mentors?</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">MH: I love all the mentors!!! They are some of my best friends and I always have a great time around them!</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">EH: The mentors are awesome people to hang out with and it's hard to choose a specific moment that stands out more than the rest--although I fondly remember our mentor meetings where we would eat pizza and jam. </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">SF: Nothing in particular. I mean, each week something new happens so it's impossible to choose! We're all good friends and it's just great to hang out, play music and teach together! We have a lot of fun.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">BMB:. The mentors form a pretty tight group and I love spending time with them. It's really nice to have that extra time after practice when we can jam together at a higher level, as well as just hang out.</p>

<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">PN. Probably just how fun each Bow-Dacious summer camp was. Not only did I learn a ton of things with music and my violin, I also made a lot of friends and had a lot of fun. </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">BMB: Bow-Dacious is a really great program because it gets all of us with the common interest of music together to play. The best thing about Bow-Dacious, however, is that it is a lot of fun for everyone involved. Sure there are lots of different groups around where you can go and play music (I've been in several), but in my opinion, Bow-Dacious is the most fun by far!</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">SF: Yeah, it's unique! I mean classical music is awesome but it's not the only type you can play on the violin. The music we play in Bow-Dacious is a cool alternative!</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">MH: BSB is a great community to be in, everyone is friendly and I have learned so much. I've also made some of my closest friends in this group.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 10pt;">SB: That being in BSB is awesome and I want to stay here forever!!!</p>
