[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can take the instrument to any MCPS school. They will fix them up, no need to give it to a group first. [/quote] I tried at my local school a few years back. My dd’s clarinet had bad pads and a used mouthpiece. the school teacher took it at first but a few days later returned it to us. Said they couldn’t use it because it was damaged and the pads change wasn’t worth it and the mouthpiece wasn’t good enough for a spare! (Sure, She didn’t like the mouthpiece patch and had very mild teeth scratches but it wasn’t half as bad as what she saw in the school loaner instruments). We tried to then get an enquiry on price but it was like 200 just to get the pads replaced. A new looking less branded refurbished one was $210 at the store! What gives! So after it hanging around a bit, but when decluttering, we unfortunately had no choice but to trash it. Sure Marie is great but it leads to waste. But it feels good to not be bogged down by possessions. My take is don’t acquire them! My kids also had ton of waterbottles but we have seen them selling at the thrift store Sometimes so used as they are we still gave those to the thrift store. [/quote]
