TED HALLBERG OF LE MARS!

TED IS KLEM'S "CITIZEN OF THE DAY" FOR TUESDAY, MAY 8TH.HE IS THE ORCHESTRA DIRECTOR AT LE MARS COMMUNITY SCHOOLS AND HAS BEEN HONORED WITH THE "DECADES OF EXCELLENCE CRYSTAL BELL" AWARD.

Ted Hallberg is the director of the 4-12 orchestra program at Le Mars Community Schools.

That's the scheduled outlined by Ted Hallberg, orchestra director, to the LCS board of education.Students will have a guide provided under contract with Educational Travel Consultants, headquartered in North Carolina.

The trip is schedule June 2-6, but exactly when the charter buses would leave has not been determined yet, according to Hallberg.
...
Beach front on the trip had been a request from seniors in the orchestra in choosing the musical event, Hallberg indicated.

The group will have 49 students and 8 chaperones.He figures the trip will cost a grant total of $27,659 or $565 per student.Eleven students had scheduling conflicts of one kind or another, Hallberg indicated.

The low bidder for transportation was Royal Charters of Le Mars at $9,350 for two drivers and a 57-passenger bus.

One challenge -- and pleasure -- is that the orchestra has six string bass players and nine cellists.Those instruments may have to travel in a separate vehicle driven by chaperones, Hallberg told board members last week.

Admission to the concert will be a freewill donation, as the concert will serve as a fundraiser for the high school students who are working toward a trip to Boston in June, according to director Ted Hallberg.
