First Day!!!

We hope everyone had a great time yesterday!! We certainly did. There was a little bit of chaos, but that can be expected from a first day of anything. As soon as we all have the routine of things down, we are sure things will begin to run more smoothly.

We're sending the info sheet we passed out yesterday with all performance information just in case yours was misplaced. Also attached are the wordsheets for all the songs the children will be singing. Please pay particular attention to these, as some of the words are going to be different than what is heard on the CDs. To keep things appropriate and wholesome, we changed some of the lyrics. If you did not receive a CD yesterday, and were present at practice, please let us know, and we will be sure to send one home with you next week.

Please continue checking the website for more information: www.mytimetoshineworkshop.blogspot.com

We will also be using e-mail as a way to communicate with all of you. So please check it when you have time :)

Just a reminder about Kids Club: There seems to be a bit of confusion. The Kids Club is a type of daycare service we are providig for those who have more than one child in the workshop, or for those who cannot pick their kids up right after class. If you payed the $35 with your registration, then you are all set. All we need you to do is drop off your kids and we will make sure they get into Kids Club from their class and vice versa. KC takes place in a classroom just down the hall from our rehearsal space. One of the girls in Sparks, the high school group, Sarah, and Becca's mom, Lori, will be supervising the kids at all times. Snacks will be provided every week, as well as fun activities, like movies and crafts. It would be incredibly convenient if you could send the kids to practice with a water bottle that they can and will have with them at all times. For those of you who have not registered, you are still welcome to. The price will go down by $5 every week. If you need to use it only once or twice, it will be $5 each time, which you can simply give to Lori when you drop your kids off. Cash or check only please. When you pick the kids up from KC, please use the front entrance, as not to distract the kids rehearsing. Just enter the building from the west side, pass the front desk, pass the wall with the handprints, and turn right. There is a sign next to the door that says "Kids Club". The room is right across from the Elementary school bathrooms. If you have any more questions, let us know, and we will do our best to answer them.

If you know any high school girls that love to sing and dance, please tell them about us! It's not too late! We would love to add to our HS girls group. Right now we have 6 beautifully talented girls, but the more the merier, right? Right! Spread the word.

Please remember this is our first year doing this and there will be bumps along the way. However, we are fully committed to these kids and their talents, and it is such a blessing to be able to help them "shine" :)

Thank you all so much for being a part of it!!
