Have a most wonderful day!Josie has worked super hard setting up a spreadsheet with a massive list of private teachers, for us to post on our website! Check it out. We have a link for it on the side bar of the desktop version of the website, as well as a link on the contact us page!
We will start as normal with our rehearsal, but there will be T-Shirts ready for you, and we encourage you to put them on (over whatever you are wearing, or go change into them but don't leave clothing in the bathrooms). We will be taking group pictures with Tshirts after rehearsal.We don't expect the weather to be warm, so the pictures (with instruments) will likely be indoors, but be alert for instructions!We will then share snacksThis is POT LUCK! If you bring a snack, be sure it's individually wrapped to keep everyone safe. I will be bringing something homemade and individually wrapped too! There are nearly 60 people in the orchestra.After snacks, we will have get-to-know-you activities headed up by Andrew Watkins (our brass specialist).Expect the activity to end between 12:15 and 12:30.

Music will be rehearsed with "shrinking" instrumentation in mind: Star Wars, Salute to Broadway, Saint-Saens, Mozart, with an emphasis for concertos in String Sectionals as well as in full rehearsal on putting together the orchestra, so the soloists may be playing a lot less.

| Retreat 2020 Survey |
| Our retreat has been a highlight yearly since 2010. It usually runs for 24 hours, and this year is scheduled from 5 pm on Friday, October 23, to 5 pm on Saturday, October 24, which enables people to drive to and from the camp's remote location in the daylight. Camp UTABA http://camputaba.org/ is in the north end of the Ogden Valley. Map link: https://goo.gl/maps/aDceY9efPnWPjYwt8 At Camp UTABA, they cook for us and we make music. We gather Friday, have dinner, a rehearsal, and play get-to-know-you games, then sleep in cabins. On Saturday, we have breakfast, a rehearsal, skits, lunch, a cleaning session, another rehearsal, and then a final sweep up before heading home. Included are several well-loved outdoor activities: Carpet Ball, a Giant See-saw thing with springs under the center, and, of course, the great outdoors. This year, the camp hosts have been working closely with the Weber County Health Department. Several bunk beds have been removed from each cabin to reduce cabin capacity and enable social distancing, but they still have room for us because of the smaller orchestra this year. The lodge where we dine and rehearse, however, does not give us the same amount of space for physical distancing that we are getting used to in the gym at Promontory School, and the get-to-know-you games may need to be changed and / or moved outdoors (for those of you who have been before, we're not sure about whack 'em - might need to play some outdoor night games instead - suggestions welcome). So, be sure to bring a coat! The chance to get to know each other and make music together in this lovely setting with the beavers, moose, and other wildlife (sometimes skunks), has been a beloved kickoff for our season over the past decade. We would dearly love this activity to happen, but we need to know your thoughts and intentions in regard to running it. Our date is roughly 3 weeks from now, and we need to make a decision by Monday, Oct 5. This survey is to find out who would be committed to participating in the retreat this year, or what your level of interest is in an alternate activity. The cost is minimal. We just pass the money on to the camp. Total cost is $55. If you don't spend the night, but eat the meals, it's $30. Meals average out to be $10 each. If we only go for Saturday we may choose to eat 3 meals, so the tentative cost would be $30. If you are on a scholarship, please understand that the scholarship does not cover the retreat. If it's still a financial burden, please talk to us. We can usually find a sponsor. I collected a few pictures from the last couple years, so you can see a little of what it's like. Thanks!!!!
