Free Drum Kit Giveaway Winner!

Thank you to everyone who took the time to enter the draw, I’m sure there will be other free drumtastic giveaways down the road, so do keep in touch. 

Congratulations to Sharon! This is the second time she’s entered one of our free kit giveaways, so it just goes to show how persistence pays off!!  Her son will soon be joining the Cochrane High School band on percussion so it couldn’t have come at a better time for them all. (Lets hope the neighbours feel the same!)

Notes:

• In the spirit of the giveaway if you are the lucky winner, it would be wonderful if you would consider making a donation to Replant at https://www.replant-environmental.ca/donate.html as part of our “Sticks to Branches” tree planting program to help fight climate change. But it's NOT a requirement, and the tree police will not be checking!

• The kit will be ready for collection from our Gleneagles Studio in Cochrane immediately after the draw. (Sorry there are no options for shipping!)

• Family packs of ear plugs NOT supplied 🤣

PS...

If you'd like to "declutter" your basement of some dusty little used drum gear, drop me a line with a few photos. Here's a bit more info on what happens next..https://www.cochranedrumtutor.ca/drum-gear-gifting

2025 was another record year of tree planting to help fight Climate Change!

A huge and heartfelt thank you to all my students for helping make the world a better place one drum lesson at a time! 

In the most successful year to date of our "Sticks to branches" program, well over 2500 trees were planted on our behalf by Replant.ca in Eastern Canada in 2025. Thats enough to carbon offset driving a family car over 43 times around the globe!!*

We’re now entering our 5th year of the program and the results are really starting to rack up now.

The program was developed by Edward Allen, owner of Cochrane Drum Tutor based on his concern for the state of the environment and after he learnt about how ethically minded companies like Patagonia use a proportion of their annual profits for a range of environmental and social causes.  to learn more visit: https://www.cochranedrumtutor.ca/stickstobranches

“There are so many ways we can use our businesses to not just provide ourselves a wage but also to consistently help make the world a better place for everyone. I just happen to love the simplicity and effectiveness of tree planting, so after finding out about the excellent work of Replant.ca it just all fell into place, and now has become a core part of our reason for being!"

PS.

If you don't have drum lessons with me BUT would like to help do your bit to fight climate change please consider using Ecosia for your internet searches it works just like google BUT all the profits go to planting trees! Try it at www.ecosia.org 

(* If you too are a bit of a nerd, go check out the math athttps://treecanada.ca/app/ they use very conservative estimates for carbon capture, so in reality our impact will probably be higher over time. I'm NO scientist but if you have any questions about all this just ask!)
