The Thaddeus Lake Music Foundation is happy to announce that Thad’s Musical Instrument Lending Library (Thad’s M.I.L.L) is now open! We’re located inside the Leduc Arts Foundry which is in the Leduc Recreation Centre (4330 Black Gold Drive, Leduc, AB). The closest entrance to Thad’s M.I.L.L is the east entrance.
Here are some instruments at Thad’s M.I.L.L Availability will vary. Come down in person to see what specific instruments are available to borrow. Since we’re a volunteer run organization we are unable to hold or reserve instruments/equipment.
Who Can Become a Thad’s M.I.L.L Patron?
Anyone living within Leduc County (including the communities within Leduc County borders) can join Thad’s M.I.L.L. There’s a fee of $20/year for an account valid for one person. Those under 16 can sign up with parent/guardian endorsement.
A patron can borrow an instrument for up to 6-weeks. Patrons who are 7-22 currently enrolled in music lessons/classes may be eligible for longer term loans with endorsement from their music teacher. Please check out the Apply Page for more details.
How Can You Become A Thad’s M.I.L.L Patron?
- Come down to Thad’s M.I.L.L. This is located at the Leduc Arts Foundry (4330 Black Gold Drive, Leduc – use the east entrance). Thad’s M.I.L.L is only open during the Leduc Arts Foundry regular operating hours.
- Talk to the friendly staff/volunteer at the front desk at the Leduc Arts Foundry about becoming a Thad’s M.I.L.L patron. If you’re under 16 you’ll need a parent/guardian with you to fill out a form.
- Be sure to have payment for the account. We accept cash or e-transfer. We suggest recommend having cash as e-transfer payments can take 48 hours to be verified before a patron is allowed to borrow an instrument.
