PanMasters Instrument Fundraiser
During the weekend of February 11- 12, 2017, the Pan Masters Steel Orchestra experienced a personal tragedy. Our secured Music Studio in North Brentwood, Maryland was vandalized and our Truck, Band Equipment and two (2) Color TVs were stolen. Although the Maryland Police has subsequently located the truck, we are challenged with the replacement of Band Equipment and TVs, truck repair, retuning of damaged Pans and replacement of damaged refrigerator equipment in the Pan Yard.
Pan Masters is requesting financial assistance from our friends and supporters to assist with the replacement cost. Thanks in advance!

Sorry to hear of that loss, which must hurt...
I for one can testify that Pan Masters has served the Caribbean and non-Caribbean communities in the Wash DC area well. I had reason recently on this blog to mention Pan Masters as I fondly recalled my last DC carnival in 2009, the year Michael Jackson ... may God rest his soul ... passed.
Pan Masters has a tradition to be proud of. I have seen them nurturing young talent, and it was a pleasure for me, when I lived in the area, to see youngsters come through the pan school, and grow and blossom as players and more importantly as people.
I support this request of the band and would urge all members of the blog to give, and give generously.
May God bless the band to come back even better and stronger after this incident.
