VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION

1. FUNDRAISER
   Because our order was so small this spring, the company is not shipping until “someone picks it
   up” i.e. another trucker “headed our way”. Yes, we have learned a lesson. Yes, Tracie Calkin,
   chair person, is doing her best and has made them aware of our time constraints. No, we don’t
   know when it will be here. We are sorry and hope your customers are understanding! (Also
   hope that it doesn’t come April 4‐8th!! Or we could just all camp‐out together that week…….)

3. SPRING TRIP
   PARENT MEETING: PLEASE attend at 5:30 on Tuesday, April 12th, right after rehearsal. We need
   to be done by 6:15 since there is another meeting at the church, so we will talk fast! We will give
   out chaperone assignments, itineraries, packing lists, EVERYTHING that night. We need at least
   one parent for each singer! We have had a chaperone drop—if you want to go contact me!
   In a nutshell, tour includes day performances at these schools: Rawlins, Rock Springs Jr. High,
   Lyman, and Evanston North Elementary. We have evening performances in Rock Springs and
   Park City. We have a choral adjudication/choral clinic at the University of Utah. We are visiting
   the Olympic Training Center in Park City, the Zoo in Salt Lake City, your choice of other SLC
   venues, and the taping of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. WOW! This will be a GREAT trip! Huge
   thanks go to Susan Martin and Tonya Burton for all of their hard work and planning.
4. SCHOOL TOUR, FRIDAY, April 8th
   All children need to be excused from school that day, with their MAKE‐UP work done ahead of
   time! We are not a school activity, so this is up to each family. I tried to find the very best day to
   miss—squeezed in between PAWS testing, class trips, etc., but make‐up work must be done.
   We still need 3 drivers—please! Thank you to the following: (if I missed you please let me
   know) Dietz, Sczymak, Miner, Osborne, Martin, Schubert, Pickrell, Mosier, Mabey, Chadderdon,
   Spaulding, Rich, and Tobin). As soon as I get additional drivers I will make assignments.
   Parents, please have your children at the new St. Anthony’s School (behind Lady of Fatima and
   Safeway on CY Ave) at 8 a.m. (good breakfast first) and pick them up at 2:45 from the new CY (on
   Outer Drive, east from Wal‐Mart). Also, please send your child with either a sack lunch or money
   to buy lunch at a fast food stop. Drivers will determine those stops. Dress is chorale
   performance attire. Check handbook for rice krispies and drink assignments. We will have those
   snacks at Sagewood directly following that performance. The performance times are as follows:
   9:00 St. Anthony’s
   10:00 Sagewood
   11:00 Woods
   12:45 Poison Spider
   2:00 CY
