December 2013


December

It’s time!!!  Let’s put on a show!!!

Exciting News!!!

After many years I have joined the century.  I can now accept CREDIT CARD payments!!!  I know, it’s a shock.  I’m so excited.  And, it’s kind of fun.  So, if you would like to pay with credit card, I’m open for business.

Speaking Parts/Solos

We will be working on speaking parts in class each week.  Please help your child memorize their part and say it with the correct “feeling”.

Harmonic Tunes Only

For our deck the Halls song I would like to ask for your help.  I had thought that I would purchase red and green gloves for our kids to wear for this song and I still will, but I think it will look much cuter on stage if they add their own personal touch to the look.  I’m thinking a hat and scarf.  Nothing super hot.  The stage lights are hot enough as it is.

SUGARHILL CHOIR

Please have your kids listen to the music included in the links below.

 


 

Bethlehem Night Just kids:

 


SLIDE SHOW PICTURES

I have not received very many pictures for our slide show.  Please send them ASAP.  I would like to work on in over Thanksgiving.

Send me:

1-   A head shot of your child alone.

2-  A family picture.  It can be a Christmas shot, the whole family or just a part.  Whatever you choose. 

3-  Please e-mail me these pics ASAP.

Costumes

I’m hoping the costumes will get her during the Thanksgiving break.  I will hopefully be handing them out at our Wednesday practice on the 4th.

Picture Day

Rebekkah Larsen will be at our dress rehearsal on the 21st.  She will take pictures of all of my friends.  The photos can be viewed and ordered on her website.  I’m sure she’ll have a card that gives us instructions.

Rebekkah takes beautiful photos.  I’m sure we’ll be happy she came. 

Performance Cancelled!

Please don’t forget that the performance we had originally scheduled for December 7th was cancelled.

Performance Expanded!!! 

The Adult living center right next to the Bridge Assisted Living Center has asked if we would please come sing to their residence right after we sing at the Bridge on the 11th! 

We will walk together from the Bridge to their neighbors and sing for them.  I’m thinking we will be completely finished around 7:45.

A FEW ADDITIONAL NOTES

1-      POTTY-When you bring your child into the school for the concert, please stop by the restroom and encourage them to go. Little tummies get butterflies and they almost every time will need to go.

2-      HAIR- Make sure their hair is pulled away from their face so that we can see their beautiful eyes and smiles.

3-      MAKEUP- The stage lights are harsh. A little mascara, blush, and lipstick help define facial features on stage. It does not have to be over the top. Just a little to help outline their natural features.

4-      STUFF- If you have them change from their outside shoes to their ballets or jazz shoes , please hold their regular shoe at YOUR seat. That goes for coats and jackets as well. They will be up and down the whole concert and we don’t want them tripping over anything that we can prevent.

5-      SEATING- The seating in the theater is first come first serve. There will plenty of room for everyone. Just a hint, the best seats are about half way back. That is where the speakers are.

6-      MRS. CLAUS- Mrs. Claus has informed me that she is coming to our concert again this year.  She let Santa know that he can take the night off.  She enjoyed it so much last year, she’s coming again.  I hope she brings her cute elf with her again. So, put on your holiday best and come visit with Mrs. Claus.  She will be taking last minute requests, as long as you’ve had a good year, that is.
