Ride to Masterworks

Each student is responsible for getting themself to Piedmont Baptist Church (at the corner of Piedmont and Canton) on December 6 for rehearsal at 4pm and the performance at 7pm.  We will do our best to coordinate rides, but we need parents to volunteer to drive.  If you would be willing to take a load of students just up the street, please mail Miss Winner, kelly.winner@cobbk12.org.

Uniforms

Do you have a uniform issue?  You need to sign-up on the piano explaining your issue BEFORE THANKSGIVING BREAK in order for it to be resolved for the Masterworks concert.  If you have not paid your fees, your uniform will not be available to you for the concert.

Masterworks Rehearsals

Don't forget about our Masterworks after school rehearsals! The chorus and full orchestra will rehearse together in the band room from 3:45-5:30pm on the following days:

Thursday, Nov. 29

Monday, Dec. 3

Tuesday, Dec. 4

These rehearsals are required and all chorus members are expected to attend.  If you have a conflict, you must turn in a note to your class's box in the business center PRIOR to the rehearsal.  Students who do not attend after school rehearsals may be asked not to sing at the concert.

Cookie Dough

Joe Corbi Cookie Dough/Pizza orders will be delivered to the Chorus room THIS FRIDAY, November 15!  They will be ready for students to pick up and sign out immediately after school.  Please make arrangements to get a ride home if you have a large order.  We have no way of storing items not picked up - so you MUST claim your items on Friday afternoon.

Practice Files for Elijah

I am working on putting up practice files for the pieces we are working on from Elijah. Please use them to be more prepared Masterworks! I also posted files for the solo and the trio. Auditions for these will be held Wednesday November 7 after school. Keep a log of your practice times (signed by your parents) and you can receive merit points - 5 for every half hour.

Congratulations Gold Company!

Congratulations on a great show! I am so proud of all your hard work and hope that you are too. Thanks to all the parents who helped out - Jean and Tim Fleming, Lisa Nicholas and Jon Liles, Susan Ward, Pam Gillespie, Karin and Chuck Storla, the Dodson Family, Zanny and Michael Dillson, Lola Burroughs, Cheryl Horvath, Dianne Lowe, Melissa McMahan, Laurel Smith, Angela Karwoski, Geri Osborne, Donna Kelley, Joyce Hall, and Terri Robbins. We wouldn't have been able to do it without you.
