    Duration: 2 1/2 hours
    Venue: Flemington United Methodist Church (entrance on Maple)
    Description: HHs -

    Looking forward to another CRAFT FAIR this weekend!  Sign-ups (crafters and singers) are good, and the weather is looking great, too.  Thanks to our organizers, especially Rusty and Rich C., along with many other helpers. Tell your friends to come and hear the chorus sing at 2pm!

    Remember to attend the town's JAZZ FEST this Friday night, right on Main St..  HHs will have a table. Stop by!

    Last Tuesday we made good progress with our song memorizations; the following (for the Christmas Show) are now OFF-PAPER; we will continue to review these 3 weekly.
    1. Hippopotamus  (for the Craft Fair)
    2. Ringmaster's Lament - Ensure that the 2nd verse and TAG are good. 
    3. We Wish You - Focus on YOUR trouble-spots.  We'll check it tonight at the end of the evening. .

    4. White Christmas - Off paper 2 weeks after the Craft Fair. We will resume work on this one NEXT week. The chorus WILL sing the optional Key Change. We are in the process of acquiring tracks for this Key Change.

    IMPORTANT: We have done a lot of NEW SONG LEARNING over the last 6 weeks. If you've missed a significant number of rehearsals, you will need to keep up, as there is still more new music coming for the show. Please talk to your SL if you have questions or need help. Remember that we are Self-Evaluating our progress.  Our goal is to for each of us to know a song at least 70% to rehearse ON the risers with the group, and be 90% for a performance. Rusty will talk to us about each of these levels and answer questions! 

    PVI (Personal Voice Instruction) Pgm continues tonight at 7pm for selected individuals! This will bolster our skills  individually.
