Hello Encore Families,

We are about to embark on a new school year, a new rehearsal season, our eleventh year!  There have been some changes over the years, but the fees have remained the same, and we are thankful to not have to raise them.

If you refer a family to our groups and they sign-up, you will get $10.00 off your fees.  If you bring in more than one family, you receive $10.00 off for each family that joins.

Envelopes with the director's names will be on the counter in the back of the rehearsal room.  That is where you can put your fees for the semester.  Make checks payable to each director, info about that will be on the counter as well.  I need to get everyone's email address and contact info as well, so add that to the clipboard that will also be sitting on the counter - lots of "stuff" on the counter :o)

We will see everyone on September 6th - at the Morris Center - groups start at 9am, check the sidebar on the right to find out when various groups rehearse.

I will be offering sewing classes during rehearsal times.  I have a few openings left for beginning and intermediate students.

Looking forward to seeing those who are returning and the new families that are joining us.

Blessings!

Martha

Still time to find and instrument and join a group

The "meet and greet" went very well.  We met some new families and some of our regulars showed up to sign up for new groups.

If you missed the opportunity to find an instrument and still need help, please email me ASAP - there is time to accomplish that and be ready for the first rehearsal on September 6th.

Thanks to Beautiful Music and The Band-Aid for attending the instrumental tryout.  Please see these businesses for your musical needs.  They rent and sell instruments and accessories, as well as do repairs.  The support and help our groups out and we like to return the favor.

I will be offering sewing classes that meet during the rehearsals.  The fee is $95.00 per semester - email me regarding any questions about the classes.

Enjoy what is left of summer - it is going way too quickly for me.
