TOURNAMENT OF ROSES

When the invitation arrives, make Gateway YOUR second call!
We're ready to help make the most of your trip to the Rose Bowl.

INTERNATIONAL BOWL GAMES

Bowl Games in foreign countries generate the same enthusiastic crowds as in the U.S. For many, the only ingredient missing to complete this "American football experience" has been American bands.

Costa Rica


Directors are raving about Costa Rica as a music tour destination. This country has a rich tradition of music performance and appreciation. The people are warm, the weather is hot and the food is spicy! Words cannot express the vivid colors of the plants and amphibians, the sounds from the jungle canopy, the dewy mist on your face, and so many more wonderful sensory delights. You are enveloped by beauty in this tropical country.

Instrument Donations

Music programs and educators in Costa Rica face a common problem, no instruments. In many areas teachers work part time or volunteer. They don't have the funding or resources necessary to put together a concert band or an orchestra.

Gateway's traveling ensembles have made efforts to gather instruments from their school and community to donate to the students in Costa Rica. The Costa Rican people are very warm and hospitable, it's a way to give back and bring music to their communities.

If you are considering Costa Rica, start now with a letter or email to the parents and businesses in your community. You will be amazed at how many instruments will come your way! Another way to donate is to prepare a monetary donation for a scholarship or teacher stipend. Contact Gateway to discuss how to get started!
