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 will be able to borrow an instrument for up to 6-weeks.
