Hello Encore Families,

Mr. Gaskin, our choir/guitar director, was in a car accident Tuesday. His goal was to be out of the hospital in time for the recital on Friday, but now it looks like he will not be released as soon as he had hoped. Since he is our source for using the building, and all that goes into putting on a recital, we will be cancelling Friday's program. If you know of other families that are part of our program, maybe you could check with them to make sure that they have received this email. I don't want anyone to make the trip, along with family members, to an empty building.

Choir and guitar students - we hope to still do a program at Pioneer Ridge on December 4th - that is over two weeks away, so those plans still remain.  Watch for an email with more info on that, next week.

It saddens the directors and myself, that we can't show off what has been accomplished this semester. In thirteen years, we have only had to cancel once - due to an ice storm. Join me in praying for the Gaskin family - I know they would appreciate your prayers.

Second semester begins January 8th.

If you are not a member of our group and were attending the recital to learn more about us, please plan to come meet us on the first day of second semester.

Thanks everyone.  Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Martha
