Weekly Update

It was another good week of rehearsals. Please remind your students that we all want to have fun, but not to be so loud and talkative it becomes disrespectful to other adults and students involved in the show.  Thanks for your assistance!

CHILDREN’S CHORUS PARENT MEETING:

One adult representing each family in the children's chorus is required to attend our parent meeting on Monday, February 13th at 7 PM.  The meeting will be at Holy Cross School (probably in the cafeteria).  At this meeting we will review our attendance policy, answer questions, give you information about costuming and ask for help on our different committees.  We will also explain the "wrangling" process. 

WRANGLERS:

We appreciate your continued efforts and assistance to help maintain order and (as much) silence (as possible).

Please continue to step in to help wigglers and chatters stay focused and pay attention. If kids are talking or horsing around and should be paying attention, we want you to step in, don't hesitate. And when a small group breaks off to learn something, the others should be strongly encouraged to SIT QUIETLY, and sit with them, if needed.  THANK YOU!

COSTUMES:

COSTUME COMMITTEE NEEDS YOUR HELP! Costumes are coming along great, but there are a few donations we need from you. Scour your closets for the following non-returnable items to help us make more wonderful costumes for the show:

    dark colored sheets, blankets or table cloths. They are for the cloaks worn by the children's choir during the prison scene, so they don't have to be 'pretty'. Any old thing will do. (White or light color is fine, too. We can always dye them.)
    baseball caps. We will be making turbans out of them and will need to cut off the brim so be sure it's not your dad's favorite cap.
    Keep that fabric coming for Joseph's Dreamcoat! Bright and shiny colors are the best.

THANK YOU TO OUR VOLUNTEERS WHO HAVE HELPED OUT THIS WEEEK:  Cindy Howie, Denise Hood, Sarah Hasenstab, Maria Perdekamp, and Lisa Herzog, and Mrs. Bohlen for use of the library.

REMINDERS: 

    Please keep bringing in the 8X8 pieces of fabric for Joseph’s coat.  Due date is Friday, February 24.
    Monday, March 6:  “Off-book” day. 
    Please continue check out the blog at hcdreamcoat.blogspot.com list of props needed!
