    Description: HHs -
    Thank you all for a very successfuly Marine Corp Ball event last Sat. In addition to John Reimer (Master emcee!) we had 16 singers on hand. Afterward we all stayed for an extra hour to review five of our Holiday Show tunes  Thank you for the extra progress.

    I trust everyone has seen Christian's informative email note this morning. Here is an excerpt:

    - Tuesday's rehearsal (11/14) will include a visit from a photographer to take publicity photos.  So, LOOK GOOD!  We could use a few volunteers to "clown up" at 7 :00pm in costume for pictures.  You don't have to be in your particular character for the show, we just want some great faces for the photos.  Make up may be used.  Costume parts will  be provided. If you don't want to be in the shoot as a character, no worries, but wearing Harmonizer optional shirts would be great (such as sweatshirts, polos that aren't our current one, t-shirts, etc.)

    Dan Hunter has provided additional DETAIL for TONIGHT's Schedule. Remember that we will have both a photographer, as well as our stage director, Mr. Will Magalio on-hand this evening:
