The award is funded by Scintel, a Duluth company, in honor of Dr. Chandrasekhar.
Mrs. Bentley was honored on Father’s Day at the Sunday Kind of Groove Concert to benefit DCSF. Although rain was threatening, many enjoyed a concert outing with Dad at the picnic grounds on beautiful Berkeley Lake. The band Classic Recall rocked the crowd with timeless classics from the 70s. Concert-goers picked teachers’ wishes from an appletree, and gave generously to help supply classrooms of the 7 Title I schools.
The next DCSF Sunday Groove concert will be on SUNDAY, AUGUST 20 with the splash of real Big Band/Swing Era sounds by ATLANTA 17. It’s been rumored that musically talented kids from Coleman STEAM School will give these classics a try, too.
