Benefit concert will help ship donated instruments

SHOHOLA — Aspiring Eagle Scout Jonathan Langberg has collected more 30 instruments to ship to the Good Shepherd Academy in Cameroon. On June 17 he will hold a benefit concert at the Delaware Valley High School Auditorium to raise money to cover the shipping for this project.
The concert, which begins at 7 p.m., will feature three acts and show a video explaining the history of Good Shepherd Academy. Admission is $10 for adults, and $5 for students.
Jonathan is a Life Scout of Shohola Boy Scout Troop #76 and has made this his Eagle Service Project. He's also a junior at Delaware Valley High School and a dedicated member of the Delaware Valley High School concert and marching bands. He collected used band instruments, accessories, and sheet music that he will repair, package, and ship to the non-profit school in Cameroon, a country in Central Africa on the eastern border of Nigeria. The goal is for a band program to start at the school in the 2017-18 academic year.
