Greetings homeschooling families:
My name is Scott Wood
and I have always been homeschooled. I am 14 years old. My
passion is playing the bagpipes in solo competition and with the
Robert Malcolm Memorial Pipe band throughout BC & the US.
My twin brother, Tyler, plays the side drum. We play and
volunteer at various events in the lower mainland---almost on
a weekly basis. I enjoy playing for seniors as they inevitably
will start to sing, especially when I
play Flower of Scotland or Amazing Grace. I compete in 4
mini competitions and 10 highland games annually. This August,
I am adding another competition to my itinerary---the most
dignified Highland Games in the World: The World Pipe Band
Championship at Glasgow Green in Scotland. I set the goal to
play at the Worlds when I was 10 years old—with a lot of
time and effort---I am living my dream. I have come up with a
small fundraiser to help offset some of my costs that I hope will
be of interest to you.
I have noticed over the years
cars with bumper stickers that read: “Proud Parent of an
Honour Role Student” or “Proud parent of a Water Polo
Athlete”. My parents, for years, ALWAYS comment when we see
such stickers that they are “Proud Parents of
Homeschoolers”!! I have designed a bumper sticker that
says: “Proud Parent of a Homeschooler”. I decided
to do this because Homeschooling is getting very popular…we
meet more and more homeschoolers these days, and I thought it
would be really cool to see these stickers on the road. I hope
you think it’s cool too!! (I found out after I ordered
the stickers that the owner of the print shop homeschools his
kids!!)
These stickers provide an opportunity to celebrate
homeschoolers and to bring awareness of homeschooling. It is a
vinyl sticker with dark blue writing on a white background.
Cost is $6.00 each or 2 for $11.00 USD including postage. For

Scott
