For every single event, they have been wonderful. Their music selection, games, and interactions with the kids are perfectly tailored for our 5th<\/sup> and 6th<\/sup> graders. I would recommend them to any school for any event.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em>Andrew J.

The music and activities he implements into our events have always been enjoyable, tasteful, engaging and most importantly age\/grade level appropriate for students.\u00a0 It is without reservation that I recommend Jim and Music Connection for your upcoming school events or activities.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Jeff Hill, Principal, Valley Vista Elementary School, North Royalton School District<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWe have used Music Connection for our PTA Family Events for the last 14 years. The children, parents, and faculty love seeing DJ Jim. He not only brings age-appropriate music, but he also provides fun and engaging activities. Our events would not be as fun or well-attended without all the \u201cextra\u201d that DJ Jim brings. My children can still name the winners from hula hoop contests several years ago! Music Connection has been very flexible and accommodating when weather has forced us to make changes to our events. We have never had anything but the best possible experience every time we\u2019ve had Music Connection at an event.
