ACTION ITEMS:
- NOTE SCHEDULE CHANGES: The proposed date for the Summer Social has been moved up one week, to August 16th. Dave and Patricia Castelli will be the hosts at their home, 2014 West 1550 North, Provo, UT. (801-377-6153) (Directions will be provided later.)
Gather: 5:00pm - 6:00pm, and we will eat at 6:00pm. BYOM: Bring your own meat for the barbeque grills, which he will have fired up. The chorus will furnish the plates and utensils, and the rest of the summer evening meal items, and probably a watermelon or two for dessert. Hang out, get acquainted with spouses, do a little singing, have a great time. - We have added a Winter concert as a dress rehearsal for our Winter Show. We have been invited to sing for the Boy Scouts of America winter social on Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008. More details on this will be available later. (This will be a PAID gig. Please try to be available that night.) We have also added a Winter concert for the Joseph Smith Building on Saturday, Dec 20th, at 4:00pm (Call time: 3:00pm)
- The Rocky Mountain District RMD FALL CONVENTION will be held in Colorado Springs on the last weekend of September, the 26th and 27th. You MAY register individually, but the Chorus has again been asked to do a Group Registration for all Members who are going to sing at the Convention. Make out a check to the Beehive Statesmen for $70 and give it to Tom Melville before Wed, 8/27. After that, you will be required to register individually for $80.
You MAY also Pre-register your guests for All Events for $70 (same procedure,) but the Events that most will attend will be: Fri Night (Quartet Semi-Final,) Sat Afternoon (Chorus Final,) Sat evening (Quartet Final and District Show,) and the Sat Night Afterglow. Single Event tickets will be available at the door for only $15 per event. (Hmmm, there's an opportunity to save a few $$, depending on which events your guests would plan to attend.)
