10/14/19: Week #6 Update

Dear Choir Parents, Congratulations to Chris Pratt, Andy Haines, Richard Wolf and all our incredibly talented students on a fantastic, entertaining Fall Follies! The energy on stage was great and the ballads were lovely. Bravo all on a wonderful show! Here are a few Choir items you may want to know this week:

COUPON BOOKS FUNDRAISER — The next deadline for turning in Coupon Book money is this Friday 10/18. If your student needs assistance selling their books, please contact Perry Calisi at perry1353@gmail.com. Remember, all books sold by your student beyond the required 10 puts $10/book into your student’s choir savings account. There were 5 coupon books found at the North PAC last night. If they are yours please contact Perry.

We will be contacting all interested volunteers to create a schedule this week and the more volunteers we have the easier the process of organizing, setting up, selling and tearing down. Also, if you would be willing to display a garage sale sign starting next Sunday, and have a strategic location to display it, please email us below and one will be delivered to you this week.

VOLUNTEER SHOUT OUTS THIS WEEK— A huge thank you to all of you who volunteered to help put on a successful Fall Follies performance this week. We hope you enjoyed participating. Please know your time and efforts are appreciated!

THE CHOIR ALL-FAMILY GARAGE SALE— Every October, families from all across the district donate items to the Choir garage sale. If you have items you would like to donate, please contact our garage sale chair, Miekea Ibekwe: miekeaibekwe81@gmail.com. We will be accepting donated items at the MPR (the multi-purpose room) at South on October 21- 24. The sale is Saturday and Sunday, October 27 and 27th in the MPR. We typically make between $6,000 and $8,000 on the all-choir garage sale, but only when we get good donations and market the sale well. So please help if you can. If you are interested in helping to set up or price items or sell at the garage sale, please sign up on the choir sign up genius above.

TRI-M AUDITIONS TOMORROW AFTER SCHOOL— All students with enough points to qualify for Tri-M are invited to audition at 3:30-4:00pm tomorrow. Remind your student to bring his or her application to auditions. Copies are available in the choir room.

POINTE SINGERS GARDEN CLUB PERFORMANCE— On Thursday 10/17 from 7- 8:00pm. A hand out will be circulated in class tomorrow.

​Thank you for supporting your student’s Choir program. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. With Warmest Regards, Laura Sanom-Fleming and Katherine Brandon 2019-20 Choir Booster Presidents president@gpsouthchoir.org
