We Are a Choir!!

We had our final auditions tonight for teh Choir.  In addition to many returning members we gained some excellent new talent.  We now have members from Starbuck Middle School, Fine Arts Elementary, Jefferson Lighthouse Elementary,  Our Lady of Grace Academy, Prairie, Walden, Red Apple, Nash Elementary, and Gifford Elementary.  What a bunch of talented kids.  If you missed tonight your options are getting more limitted.  Email me ASAP for a private audition in the next few days. OurMusicalLife@ymail.com 

Mr. Griffin enjoyed working with the kids so much he has now made himself available to help weekly.  We have done some amazing things.  With Mr. Griffin’s help we will go even farther.  Having another choral musician to assist us is like buying a new car with all the bells and whistles.  I could have got the kids where we needed to go but with Mr. Griffin’s help they will  go there in style! 

10 years from now Racine will look back and see what a turning point this was for our music community.  Getting all of these kids involved now will hopefully pay off for the adult singing community with swelled ranks in other church and community choirs.

I am so proud of you all!

6 Days of Minecraft Video is Up!

It has been a lot of hard work for the kids and me but it is finally done. I hope you all enjoy it and don’t forget to share it with your friends, tweet about it and in general sing the praises of these wonderful singers! I am very, very pleased with the results!

Ready and Waiting

I received the articles of incorporation today and opened our bank account. I have been talking to an insurance agent so that is one of the last loose ends. I will be sending out the paperwork that members’ families will need to sign. It will be attached in an upcoming email. Please bring it with to the first rehearsal on July 23 or you can fill it out when you come. I would like parents or other responsible adult to attend the first rehearsal for about 20 minutes. We will take care of collecting paperwork, tuition and a few other details. If you can’t stay don’t worry about it, as long as the paperwork is turned in the rest is just to get everyone on the same page.

Tuition can be mailed, paid along with your returning paperwork or at the first rehearsal. Checks should be made out to Our Musical Life Inc. If you need some time to pay please email me with a suggested schedule. We are flexible but will need to pay some expenses soon after starting. You can mail payments and return forms anytime before or on July 23 to Our Musical Life, 2916 Olive Street Racine, WI 53403.
