The Gilroy Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution recently honored the generosity of Dale and Ruth Connell with the DAR Community Service Award for their 2006 million-dollar contribution to the Gilroy Unified School District for elementary music curriculum.
The Connells saw a need and helped create the music program more than 30 years ago. It is because of their genorosity that music remained in the classroom and all elementary children were given the opportunity to participate, according to the DAR.
