2021 SPIRIT OF POPS AWARD RECIPIENT

Throughout my four years in Pops, it has meant many different things to me. Most people will say that at first Pops was a place to play music and then it became a community, a place of friendship. My relationship with Pops wasn't so linear, it was always evolving week to week and semester to semester. There were times when Pops was just a place to play music on Sunday afternoons, times when it was a place to learn how to be a leader, and other times when it was a place to make memories with friends. What I love so much about Pops is that no matter how I chose to engage with Pops, it was always there willing to provide whatever I wanted to get out of it, even in the strangest of times.
