ALL-DISTRICT CHORAL WORKSHOP

December 19, 2011

Dear Parent(s) and/or Guardian(s),

I hope you all enjoyed our performances last week! The kids really enjoyed putting together the concert for you! There is one more performance planned for this session of chorus. It is our annual All-District Choral Workshop! It will be taking place on Thursday, January 5th, 2012 (no snowdate). The All-District Choral Workshop is a day when we get all of the chorus members in the district (Grades 4-12) together for an afternoon of sharing music and participating in a workshop. This year, we are lucky once again to have the men's capella group from the University of Maine, The Steiners, joining us!
Here is the schedule for the workshop. Students will eat at MGWS at 10:45am-please send COLD LUNCH that day to make it easier for 150 kids to eat in 20 minutes. We will arrive at MHS at around 11:15am. The performances and workshop will take place from 11:30am-1:30pm. We will be back to school no later than 1:45pm. This workshop is not open to the public, it is a time for students to share in making music together-for the sake of making music! If you would like to help out with crowd control, please contact me, I would love your help!
The Steiners will be performing an evening concert at 7:00pm in the MHS auditorium. All community members are invited to attend! Donations will be accepted at the door. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 384-4010 or at Janice.Marro@rsu35.org. Have a great holiday season!

Permission slip can be found by clicking on Permission Slips in the Site Menu section of this website.

Sincerely,

Janice Marro
