Get Ready To Party!

Greetings!

I'm watching weather reports and it looks like we will be safe for the journey tomorrow morning, even though it will be super super cold! 

(To our amazing family from Paris ID... You might just need to stay home. But let me know what you decide!)

Party time tomorrow! Do your best to arrange to stay until 12:30, if you can.

What: NUYS and NUYCO Christmas Party
Where: Promontory School Cafeteria, after rehearsal
When: 11 am to 12:30 pm
What to Bring: 
  1. A fingerfood-type treat to share (sweet or savory)
  2. An interesting, intriguing, no-money-spent, make-someone-smile, wrapped white elephant gift 
Rules: Make sure your mom's okay with whatever you decide to bring. It can be an interesting ornament, a fun toy, an ugly sweater. No TP please, Mr Dunn says. :)

See you tomorrow! Be SAFE! I love making music with you!

Remember the attendance form if you need it (link below), and have a Holly Jolly Christmas if we don't see you tomorrow!

The following Tuacahn information was passed out on Saturday!  Read below and see the attached PDF.  

If you're still interested in going, we can add additional musicians up to January 14th!  Join the fun!

A PDF flyer will be emailed to each musician.  Musicians take these flyers out to family and friends both near and far and invite them to help send you on this trip!  Just think…if you can find 10 people to donate the "cost of a lunch/dinner" you have made your first tour deposit due January 14, 2017!  Don't forget family and friends that live out of the area too!  There will be a Parent Tour Meeting in January.  Watch your email for more details!

NUYS: Volunteers, Party, and Safety

Greetings!

Here is a quick email with some important info:

Tour Fundraising:
Our volunteer collaboration has been updated to reflect the need for parents to lead the effort for fundraising for the tour. Debra Francis has some great resources for you, but she needs others to be in charge of this (and so do I). I've split it into monthly committees. With the lower amount for tour, it may be deemed necessary to combine some committees, once the sign up is complete. 

If you can't make the spreadsheet work for you, just email me and let me know where you want your name. I'll put it on!

Party
Next week, Dec 17, is our combined Christmas Party after rehearsal, until 12:30pm. I haven't done anything about this, but be sure to plan to bring a treat (sweet or savory) to share, and an interesting, intriguing, wrapped, no-money-spent white elephant gift for our game. Creative is awesome!

Those who volunteered to help with the Christmas Party, please set aside the time to come early to set up (perhaps 10 am). Each year Doris brings table cloths and dishes to set out the food, and also decorations for the table. If there is a different volunteer that could head this up, I think Doris would be thrilled to hand off the effort to someone else.

Safety
Last, but most important, please don't come tomorrow if you are in danger. I think the weather will be okay, that the storm is warming today and will be more like rain tonight and tomorrow morning, and won't go back to snow until Saturday night, but if you are in danger where you live, please be safe and stay home! I don't think we are at the point of canceling, however. 

Just let me know if you're not coming so we know you're safe.

Good luck to everyone taking the ACT tomorrow! Fun, fun!

See ya tomorrow!

Julie

PS TONIGHT is our Brigham City Messiah Sing-in, Brigham City Tabernacle, 7 pm. Come! Sing! It's going to be lovely.
