Citrus Fruit Delivery

Citrus Delivery! - Monday
We still need parent volunteers to help with the check-out procedures and citrus distribution.  Please contact me at 251-1399 or lkirk999@yahoo.com to volunteer. 

If all goes as planned the Hellgate citrus order will be arriving in Missoula early Monday morning. Periods 2 and 3 will be doing the honors of unloading the truck!  Everybody dress warm and be ready to work out!!
All Choir Families need to make plans to get their fruit delivered afternoon/evening.  We need ALL fruit orders out of the building by 7:00 PM on Monday, December 5.
If we have extra fruit, it will be available on a first come first served basis.
Citrus Sale pick-up process:
• Come to the band hallway. Find the CHOIR fruit. There will also be Orchestra Fruit and Band Fruit. You must take your order from the Choir stacks.
• Check -in with the parent volunteers at the table and get your order form.
• Go to the Choir stacks and pull out the number of boxes you need.
• After you've pulled aside your order, inventory your order for any damaged fruit. Replace as necessary from the boxes set aside for that purpose.
• When you've collected and inventoried your order, find a CHECKOUT person (choir parent) and CHECKOUT. Please make sure you do this. That way I have an accurate picture of how much I have left to sell as extras. Also, you'd be surprised how many people accidentally take the wrong item - you don't want to have to make a trip back.
• There will be several hand trucks around to aid with taking your order to your vehicle. You can park at either hallway entrance but please be careful not to block other vehicles.

All Choirs First Assignment

Welcome to the blog if you haven't been here before!  Please register so that I can give you credit for your practice time.  

All choirs need to rehearse and learn their parts for:


 Night of Silence/Silent Night

Altos:  Should practice the alto part on verse 2  and then sing Silent Night
           with the guitar only track until memorized.

Sopranos:  Should practice the soprano part on verse 2 and 3. 

                 Check for memorization by singing your part with the guitar

                 only track.

Men:   All men need to practice the german for Stille Nacht and work 

           hard to perfect pronunciation.  Check your memorization by 

           singing with the guitar only track.   Also practice Silent Night by

           using the guitar only track.
