[New_csc_newsline] The Concert Singers of Cary Choral Notes – I don’t know what will happen in the room

[Thom Haynes]

Febrero es el mes mas corto!



Our second symphonic choir rehearsal of 2023 is on Monday Feb 6,
7:30-9:30pm at Greenwood Forest Baptist Church (110 SE Maynard Rd,
Cary).


Thanks to all of you who helped publicize "I Believe", and/or
attended, and/or volunteered. It was a splendid evening!


Today (Feb 2) is our Papa Murphy's fundraiser! At any of their Take'N'
Bake Pizza Cary locations. The fundraiser will last all day (12-8pm),
and to participate, members/family/friends just need to mention that
they're with the Concert Singers of Cary fundraiser. (online orders:
use code GIVE33). We receive 33% of the order! Attached is a brochure
for the event.

We haven’t much time to finalize our spring group Formal Fashions
concert attire order. You can familiarize yourself with our standard
wardrobe here:

https://concertsingers.org/members/other-guidelines



Here is the Formal Fashions website:

https://formalfashionsinc.com/



You are welcome to order on your own, but if you want to save money on
shipping/handling, we put together a group order twice yearly. Plus,
the sizing on women’s clothing is a bit tricky. Terri Ring (our Alto
section leader) has helped fellow singers with this for years, she
says “tops (now $34) run small & skirts ($28) run large”. Cost for
both together is about $62 plus tax/S&H/extra charge for large items.



Here is a form you can fill out to join the group order and get help
from Terri, if needed. You can also email her directly for advice:

The HARD deadline to fill out the form: SUNDAY FEB 5. That is in 3
DAYS! Let Thom know if you are having trouble filling out this form.



Men, if you need any tuxedo separates or accessories, you might find
what you need as well at Formal Fashions, and are welcome to order
from there too, just fill out the form.



FF also sells singers’ masks; the form accommodates. The dude abides.
