Post-Thanksgiving at Scarsdale

I hope everyone enjoyed the Thanksgiving holiday. Please remember that we are rehearsing this week, December 1, at Scarsdale Middle School. See the Rehearsal This Week page for our rehearsal order and directions to SMS.

On Monday, we’ll be handing out the Hunsberger arrangement of Colas Breugnon, and collecting the Beeler arrangement. Please make sure you have the Beeler with you on Monday for the trade.

Please bring your Exchange Commitment Forms on Monday night. As we discussed, if you are unable to absolutely commit by Monday, please indicate your best intention at this point, and give us a date by which you can confirm. If you need another copy of the bulletin or commitment form, click here. We are hoping for as close to 100% participation as possible, which is what we saw in the informal count last year.

I realized tonight that the emergency post about the rear parking lot seemed to have been emailed multiple times. I apologize for this!
