Welcome, DSA alumni! Please send me bio notes and such to post on the Alumni Updates page. PLEASE include your graduation year and arts major. If you already have a note here, send me updates as needed. And if you're on Myspace.com, or Facebook, send info here too, please! DSA gets out of school June 1 and will return for first day of classes August 18. Meanwhile, I'll check in once a week or so.

FIRST DSA REUNION PLANNED!
Tiffani Parton, Vocal, 1999, is organizing a ten year reunion for '98 and '99 alumni, along with Katie Brantley. ShaShauna Nicholson Staton is soon to have a baby and had to drop off the planning committee. It is a three-day event planned for August 28 - 30, to be held at the Lumber Baron Inn and Gardens in Denver. Cost is $50/person and will include a Saturday evening banquet and a family BBQ on Sunday. They need to get more contact info for alumni from these two years, so if you know some, email now. They also want to include teachers and staff from those years in some events. There's a page on Facebook and Tiffani can be reached at tiffanip@conceptlogic.com for more information.

 FLOBOTS, a band which includes DSA orchestra alum Mackenzie Roberts and Jamie Lurie (Jonny 5) son of former DSA teacher Sally Baker, appeared on Jay Leno June 5, 2008. A sample of what they do is on youtube: "Handlebars," which is a fine video by a DSA cinema graduate, Iyabo Boyd.

The 2008 -2009 year at DSA ends June 1 and our new principal is William Kohut, currently the principal at South and a former band director. Andre Shaw, who is retiring, and Dave Hammond received Spirit of DSA awards from the Friends of DSA at our graduation on May 19.



Alumni 1:
Nothing is constant but change, and DSA is no exception. Many of you find fewer and fewer familiar faces as time goes by and that of course is as it should be. But we keep the spirit and character that you established in your tenure here, and passed on to each succeeding class. DSA is still a place at which you can wear a bike tire named Bob around your neck and no one will care.

Stay in touch,

Patricia Dubrava
