With the school year winding down, Wreckers in Tune teamed up with the musical club, Tri-M, in one last performance that capped off a productive year for both clubs and supported the Staples community in more ways than one. All profits from the performance went to KEYS Music, an organization based in Bridgeport that helps inner-city students gain self-confidence by teaching them how to play an instrument.

“Although we didn’t have our biggest audience, the performance was just as important as all others because of the money we donated to KEYS,” said Nick Vega, president of Wreckers in Tune.

One of the concert’s featured performers was sophomore Julia Greene, who sang ‘Sunday Morning,’ by Maroon 5.

“The performances have become more personal because of the smaller audiences, which makes it a great opportunity for members to show off their talents, and have fun doing it,” said Greene. “It was so much fun performing with Tri-M, and the performance summed up a great year for Wreckers in Tune.”

As an emcee, sophomore Nick Massoud agreed with Greene about the performances.

“It was great to see the culmination of a years worth of playing and learning songs as well as see the other music charity group, Tri-M, perform.”

About the Contributor
Luke Foreman, Staff Writer
Inklings evolves as its staff evolves. The paper has always carried on the tradition of improving itself and renewing itself. With new writers like Luke Foreman’ 14, that tradition will continue. Although Foreman is a junior, it is his first year on the Inklings staff. He may lack experience compared to some writers, but he is eager to make up for lost time. Foreman hasn’t always been interested in journalism. His inspiration sparked from taking collaborative writing, a course Staples offers, his sophomore year. And with that newfound inspiration he hopes to contribute as much as he can to making a great paper. Foreman has always been on the look out for new interests. However, one of his older hobbies is playing tennis. Although the tennis team and Inklings staff are seemingly different, Foreman believes there are several similarities. The new staffer explained that, “Both are very good at what they do and can both can be exciting.” The very obvious reason why Inklings and the tennis team are good at what they do is because there are always newcomers like Foreman to keep things moving forward. With Foreman as a new addition, Inklings will be in good hands.
