BHS Chorus News 8/30

 Greetings Parents and Students,

We've had a fantastic month of August singing and learning!  Here are a few things to take "note" of:

Chorus Tailgate
All chorus students are invited to our chorus tailgate this Friday, September 6, from 6-7pm outside the theatre lobby near the B parking lot/drop-off area.  This time is immediately before the first home football game this season, which starts at 7:30pm.  We will be serving free hot dogs and macaroni and cheese for chorus students.  Students, please RSVP here by Tuesday, September 3 so we can plan accordingly.  If you are attending the game, make sure to purchase a ticket.  The chorus tailgate event is only for chorus students; students must be picked up or go to the game after the chorus tailgate.

Fall Concert
Our fall concert is coming soon - September 24, at 7pm in the BHS Theatre.  Students will need to report in concert uniform for warm-up by 5:50pm.  The theatre will open for audience seating by 6:40pm.  Required dress rehearsal will be after school in the chorus room on September 23, from 2:30 to 4pm.  Pick up will be in the car rider drop-off area.  

Uniforms
Students who ordered a uniform should receive them in the next 1-2 weeks.

BPAB (Brookwood Performing Arts Boosters)
This year, we are asking all students to cover a $30 program fee.  Please pay by September 3 so we can budget appropriately.  Make checks payable to BPAB (not BHS).  Please include the form with your payment.  This money will be directly used for our students, paying for choral music, accompanists, our show, events, and more.  If you are able to donate beyond the program fee, we would be grateful for that as well!  Please read for more details, and the benefits of becoming a member of our boosters.  BONUS:  Reserved concert seating for memberships at the DYNAMIC (2 seats) and VOLUME (4 seats) levels!  Includes all chorus memberships made for the 2019-2020 school year.
