[New_csc_newsline] The Concert Singers of Cary Choral Notes – Come hither!

[Thom Haynes]

прыходзьце сюды!



Our twelfth rehearsal of the spring is Monday Apr 25 at (again) Green
LEVEL High School (not Green Hope HS). Address is 7600 Roberts Rd,
Cary, NC 27519. Instructions from the school staff: “Entrance is from
Roberts Road and parking is right in front of the school past the
tennis courts. (There is a patio with picnic tables at the front of
the school). A slightly-updated seating chart is attached.



The Practice Files page (UPDATE: now has ‘Serenade’ tracks! Also,
files organized into subfolders):

https://concertsingers.org/members/practice-files/


Nathan asks that all singers work on the soli sections (practice
tracks) of Serenade to Music. We need those to be ready to go at our
next rehearsal.


Also from Nathan: "For the Fancies set, we will perform numbers 1, 2,
and 5 in the concert. We will not perform 3 and 4."


The May 3 (7pm) CSC board meeting will be open to all! Zoom details
will be sent out later, and added to the calendar event.



We’re going to have an end-of-season gathering (doubles as a
fundraiser) for the Monday after the Concert! Put it on your cal for
Monday, 5/16/22, 11 am to 11 pm at Goodberry's (frozen custard: 1146
Kildaire Farm Road, Cary). Invite your friends!

PLEDGE DRIVE



Monday at rehearsal we will be having the highly anticipated Pledge Drive
Raffle drawing. There are prizes galore. For those of you who have already
donated, be sure you have filled out a ticket to be entered into the
drawing. If you are not sure or if you haven't, please let me know and I
will be certain you are entered. Contact me (Sue) at schaploney at gmail.com.



If you have not yet given a donation to the Pledge Drive, you can still
give on the CSC website via credit card or PayPal.  I will be collecting
cash and check donations on Monday before rehearsal and at the break.



Please give whatever you can. There is no amount too small (or too large).
We are halfway to our $6,000 goal. Let's see if we can reach that goal.
Grant givers care about the percent of membership that donates, not the
amounts.



Remember, it is up to us to do our part so that we can keep on singing!



Thank you all so much!
