Greetings Ensemble students and families!

We had a fabulous rehearsal this afternoon. With such effort, the group just gets better & better. Thanksgiving week is right around the corner & then it’s December! Crazy. So, just a couple things as we look ahead:

Performances

Friday, Dec. 9th: 7:45am Call for 8:30am Assembly

6:30 pm Call for 7:00pm Concert

What students should wear

Caroling clothes are the look of choice for the evening concert. Red, black, white & gray combo looks best on stage, but be flex. Jeans are fine. Please do, however, avoid neons, large logos, anything distracting. School clothes are fine for the morning assembly.

Party

Monday, Dec 12th Dessert Potluck Party during last class

Opportunities to help: (Please email me if you you’re interested)

1.One strong parent for each the morning & evening, to keep Ensemble in the hall quiet while Chorale opens the program.

2. Post Evening Program Dads needed to assist with tearing down risers.

3. Finger desserts sent in for party, Monday, Dec. 12th.

4. 40 red or green dessert sized paper plates (I already have cute napkins)

5. 40 Water bottles (let me know how many you can cover)

Performance pictures & video will be available on the music website, thanks to Jessie Bittner and Christine Gardner. We thank you!

I leave this Friday for my son’s wedding England. ‘Til then, I’m available best by email if you have any questions or concerns this week. Lord willing, I’ll be back Monday November 28th to forge ahead on our musical holidays together! I am truly grateful to be with our Jr High students during electives. Such fun. They are great young people. Please join me in prayer for our upcoming weeks. Wishing you joyful Thanksgiving celebrations!
