Here are the highlights of the Parent’s Meeting on 9/27/2009
1. We’re using our website to help with communication between leadership, parents, and students. If you haven’t already registered, please go to www.ignitestudentmusic.org and register. Important dates will be listed as events (with details, locations, times, etc.)—it is important to not only register but to join the appropriate group (choir, parents, sponsors, etc.)
2. We’ll use a variety of methods to insure that communication takes place—website, text, mail, email
3. We’re participating in the October 18 CD Worship premiere with the Adult Choir and Orchestra. The rehearsal retreat is this Sunday, October 4 (noon-2pm)—details for both events are listed on the site and it would be helpful for your student to RSVP
4. Christmas—we will probably sing on Sunday evening, Dec 6, with the Children’s Choirs. This will be followed by the dessert fellowship.
5. Uniforms—shirts will be distributed as soon as they arrive (hopefully by October 25)
