POMEROY–Maria Dispenza's music students performed a Spring Recital at the Pataha Flour Mill on May 16, their first recital since shutdown began in March of 2020. Allen and Oscar Dispenza, Sophie Miller, and Merritt Scoggin performed on the violin; Kaleb Miller, and Hollie, Allie, and Nick Van Vogt performed on the piano, and Westelle Scoggin performed vocally.

Dispenza expressed her appreciation to her parents Jon and Louise Van Vogt for allowing the use of the Pataha Flour Mill and her students' parents for supporting their children. She announced that Westelle will graduate and will be giving her senior recital on June 12.

The recital was well attended by parents, grandparents, and friends, who enjoyed a reception afterward with punch and desserts.
