Show Choir Snow Contingency Plan

Show Choir Snow Contingency Plan:  If we have a 2 hour delay- class is at 8:45am, If we have a school cancellation then we will meet on stage from Noon until 4:30pm to learn the rest of the show (12-1 music, 1-4 new choreo with Andrea, 4-4:30 put it all together).
Ladies- we still have four women who need to buy jazz shoes.  I will call Mama Mel tonight and see what our options are.  See you tomorrow!

Lock-in time adjustment

Attention Show Choir: I have to adjust the times for the singer/dancer/combo members during the lock-in because Andrea has been called in during the afternoon by the Army.  We will do Saturday noon-3:30 (choreo review, vocal rehearsal, band with vocals), then you will be dismissed to get what you need for the potluck & lock-in from 3:30- 5pm.  We will have our potluck at 5pm (instead of 7pm as originally planned).  Andrea will have a long choreo session to start the lock-in from 6-midnight.  The rest of our schedule from midnight until Sunday morning at dismissal will stay the same.

Don't forget your pictures tomorrow Show Choir.

Tree Lighting

Great job tonight at the Tree Lighting everyone!  Watching the Harrison High School Bands  in the parade, singing a few preview songs from our JS & HS choir concerts next week, visiting a few downtown shops and then grabbing a late coffee at The Coffee Peddlar was perfect.  Thanks City of Harrison!

IWAA opportunity

Choirs: here is a great IWAA service opportunity.  Sign up and help with Empty Bowls Charity Event at the Activity Center on Saturday, November 15th.  Remember that Junior High students will need parent permission and supervision to help. http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0f48acaf22a4fc1-empty   More IWAA opportunities to follow later this semester- but this one is a great cause.

Fundraiser here on Friday

The music fundraiser products will be here on Friday afternoon.  Remember that many of these items are refrigerated so they need to be picked up either by students (JS: in the JS band room on their way to the bus after school; HS: in the Rock Lab on their way to the parking lot) or by parents (before  4pm).
