Thursday Thoughts

What a great time Tuesday night!  Thanks to you all for working so hard. Some reminders which you may want to make note:
  •  dress rehearsal is 7pm tomorrow (Friday) evening. Please arrive with your rep in concert order in your folders. Readers please bring copies of your poems.
  • the call on Saturday night is 6:15pm ready to sing at First Baptist.
  • all music from this concert is to be passed in Saturday after the concert. The blue box will be set up backstage. Please keep and reuse your music envelopes.
  • rep for the December 4 concert will be given out on Tuesday.

REMEMBER: Those of you who are submitting travel claim forms and cheques, you need to do this by Saturday, November 5. See the travel claim form for mailing details.

Please make a last minute plug for the concert - we'd like to see this one sold out!  If everyone took just a minute to send a reminder to your concert lists (I did mine this week) and update your social networking sites there would be a lot of chatter about our concert. No one would be able to say they didn't know about it.  It's all about getting the word out, and these days it is easy for everyone to play a vital part in promoting the art we have worked so hard to create.

Finally, huge congratulations to the artistic team  of Camerata Xara and to the choir itself for a very moving event last weekend.  (I meant to mention this on Tuesday night)  The whole experience of Fatty Legs was one of the most emotional events I have attended and Xara is to be commended for telling the story of the residential schools in such a profoundly dramatic fashion in music, dance and in the reading of the story. You should feel very proud of your accomplishments!

Thanks and see you all tomorrow evening.
