The cookie dough fundraiser is complete and the wreath fundraiser orders are due today. As fundraiser money is received, each student’s portion of the money will be credited to their chorus student account. This money can be used for a variety of chorus-related purposes such as audition fees, trip expenses such as the hotel costs for Honor Chorus, and even for purchasing spirit wear.
To make use of the money from a student account, you must complete and sign a Student Account Voucher Form that specifies the purpose of the payment and the desired amount. The Voucher Form can then be submitted as payment and the money will be deducted from the student account.

The Chorus Picnic was originally scheduled for this Saturday, September 26. However, the recent heavy rain and flooding, along with a strong probability of more rain on Saturday, have forced a change in plans.
The picnic has been rescheduled for Saturday, October 3. The event will now run from 10:00am – 1:00pm instead of the originally scheduled time. As a result of this time change, we will hold the competitions first with lunch afterward.
Because of the school closures earlier this week, the due date for Spirit Wear orders has been extended to Friday, October 2. The order form has been updated with the new due date, but you may still use the original order form if you have already downloaded it.
UPDATE: The Fall 2009 Spirit Wear Sale is now over. The order form is no longer available for download.
The annual Chorus Family Field Day is coming up on September 26th from 11:00am – 2:00pm at Suwanee Creek Park. This is an optional event, but it’s always lots of fun and we would love to have as many students participating as possible. The entire family is welcome, so please feel free to bring younger siblings.
We will begin with a picnic lunch at the Alder Pavilion. Please bring sack lunches and drinks for your family. The Chorus Boosters will be providing desserts for everyone.
Lunch will be followed by lots of fun and games including a pickup football game and some friendly class competition including a water balloon toss, sponge relay, dizzy bat relay, and three-legged race. There will also be a huge water balloon fight where everyone ends up soaked (including the chorus directors), so come prepared to get wet!
We hope to see you all there!
