Spookathon

The Spookathon is DAMTA's annual community outreach event that takes place on the October Saturday closest to Halloween. It is designed to be a non-competitive, informal, family-friendly performance opportunity in which students of all ages are invited to play "spooky" music (or any style they choose) in costume at a popular coffee house. The purposes of the Spookathon are three-fold:

- Sharing music with the community

- Informing the community of the benefits of high-quality music instruction

- Raiisng money for DAMTA's Sally Manion Memorial Scholarship Fund

Students raise funds by getting pldeges for sponsors of their performance and/or practicing for the month of October. Students need not be "star" performers to participate. The motto of the Spookathon is MUSIC IS FOR EVERYONE!
