Hi everyone,
Mini-Concert: Tomorrow night, November 3, we will have a mini-concert and our rehearsal at the Efland Bahá’í Center located at 119 Maple Street, Efland, NC 27243. Please arrive with enough time to stash your belongings and get into your places by 7:30p. We will begin our mini-concert at 7:45p. Following the performance, we will continue rehearsal until 9:30p. You can wear your normal clothes, no concert attire required. Please plan ahead to determine how early you need to leave to get there on time. For reference, the Efland Baha’i Center is a 25-30 minute drive northwest of our regular rehearsal space at HTLC. The easiest way to get directions would be to use an app with GPS on your phone. For those of you who prefer a map, one is attached. The Baha’i Center is indicated by the yellow star. If you are nervous about driving there on your own, remember that carpooling with other choir members may be a good option for you. If the parking lot is full when you arrive, it is okay to park in the adjacent grassy field.
Pecan Fundraiser November Deadline: The deadline for the November delivery of pecans is tomorrow, November 3, the night of our mini-concert in Efland. Orders after this time will be included with the December delivery. Diane will have paper forms at rehearsal. You can also download them from the Fundraising page in the Members section of our website or here: Friends and Family Form, Consolidated Order Form and email to Diane. If you have any questions, please reach out to Diane Wold (S2).
Request from Sarah: We are reporting to Strowd Roses on progress made, successes, and challenges, related to their 2024 grant, which allowed us to purchase additional risers and handrails to use for dress rehearsals and concerts. Please share any comments related to your own increased sense of safety/comfort on the new risers and better ability to see/engage with Laura and the audience, during our spring concert with Sarah pedritasf@yahoo.com by November 3. Thank you. Testimonials are great to include.
Shout-out: This week, the shout-out goes to Mariah Hoye, who has created a beautiful graphic design for our upcoming concert. Thank you, Mariah.
