Watch for that. It will go out in a separate email.

Masks will be required in the building as well. Thank you for your kind cooperation.

Music Teacher List
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!

Have a most wonderful day!

Rehearsal Time Change - NUYCO

Hi families! 

Extended Rehearsal: Maestro West has asked for an extended rehearsal on Saturday. We will start rehearsing at 9:15 AM and will finish at the normal time, 11:15 AM. We will cover all four pieces. The extended rehearsal is to make up for the time we usually rehearse at retreat. Rehearsal will run as follows...

9:15-10 full rehearsal
10-10:30 sectionals
10:30-11:15 full rehearsal

Of course, we will have at least one break in there. All NUYCO members are welcome to bring a non-crumbly snack to eat and a water bottle to drink. And it is Halloween - so feel free to dress up!

Private Teacher List: If you are looking for a private teacher for your child, look no further! I've created an extensive list of teachers between southeastern Idaho and northern Utah. If you would like to access the list on a laptop, use this link. If you are using a phone, use this link

Thanks for helping your NUYCO members stay committed! Our concert will really be awesome.

Tomorrow's Rehearsal - NUYS

Greetings! 

YES we have rehearsal tomorrow. If you are in town, be there!

And if you are not in town, please let me know. Best way? Attendance form. ðŸ˜‰

Our rehearsal schedule for tomorrow will look much like last week:
8:00 Doors Unlock
8:20 Find your seat, prepare for sectionals, warm up
8:30 Strings all together in the gym, with Woodwinds and Brass in their usual places
9:25 Dismiss sectionals
9:30 Full rehearsal, Star Wars, Broadway, Saint-Saens, and Mozart
11:00 Clean up
11:30 Doors lock 

If you need to prop the outside door to arrive or leave, please close it again out of respect for the utility costs of the school.

NEXT WEEK, Oct 24, plan to stay until 12:30 if you can! We will have TShirts to hand out and we'll take some pictures and play some games! Plan to bring a snack to share. We will work out the social distancing, etc, so we can at least do that much, since we canceled retreat. (For those of you who are new, retreat is where we always hand out TShirts!)

FOLLOWING WEEK, Oct 31, our rehearsal date falls on Halloween! Costumes are welcome, and we may have a social hour after rehearsal as well, so stay tuned. 

Hoping everyone's fall break is enjoyable!

Julie
