WHAT TO BRING/WEAR: Wear your show choir t-shirt. This is what you will wear when you are not in uniform. Bring ALL parts of your uniform (hang on garment racks), and money for food. Do not bring valuables. Girls must arrive with hair already curled. Girls - dress, skirt, tights, briefs, shoes; Boys - shirt, coat, tie, pants, black socks, white t-shirt, shoes

PARENTS: Please come and cheer us on! The front rows are reserved for people from the school that is performing. Students may ride home with their parents – the parent must sign the student out with Mrs. Scherbring or another chaperone. If a student is not signed out they will be expected to ride the bus home. There will be an admission charge for spectators. Concessions will be available.

CHAPERONES: Parent chaperones are needed for the homeroom. There will be a schedule to divide the room supervision between all chaperones. Room chaperones will also get a free admission pass. No food or drink allowed in the homeroom other than water. Students are expected to watch other groups when we are not performing.

BEHAVIOR: I expect that you will be on your best behavior. If there are any problems at all you will be sent home immediately or we will call your parents to pick you up. You will also be removed from the group for the remainder of the school year. When you are not performing, you are expected to watch as many other groups as possible. Keep negative comments to yourself and take note of what other groups do well.
