... post the attached (form) on the website for the Eagan Big Sing immediately ...

We need the completed form for each chorus mailed back to me by this coming Saturday, March 15.

So what I'd like each Governor to do is use the form to get feedback from his troops and then send me a composite form for his chorus.

I have tried e-mailing the forms to each Gov, but some of them are bouncing, so let's try the website approach as an alternate path.

Please ask them to e-mail their completed 'chorus' form to me at <paul.r.carlton@lmco.com> or phone me with the info at 651-452-7557 (evenings or Saturday).

-----
... The AfterGLow attend only option is gone, and we've decided to charge for sightreading music based on number of singers in each chorus vs number who actually attend the session ....

... I may need to phone each of the govs directly and ask them to give me their numbers over the phone. For them to have a printed format in front of them will greatly facilitate me getting the numbers I need quickly in the proper order ...

... I wouldn't bother to try implementing on-line registration at this point. I am finding that most of these guys touch their PC's so infrequently that I have to phone them anyway just to ask them to read e-mail. I anticipate a phone-a-thon from my house to theirs between now and Saturday evening ...

... I did invite the two eastern Wisconsin groups, but they declined since their district is doing a similar hurry-up in Munising ....

As I mentioned on the telephone, here is what we have so far.

Eagan Men's Chorus is hosting a AMCofA Big Sing the weekend of April 25th & 26th. The format will be the same as previous (UMW) sings.

   Friday evening will be the parade of choruses with adjudication.
   Saturday morning will be a sight reading workshop to introduce new music.
   Following the workshop there will be a 30-45 minute concert by a guest chorus.
   Saturday PM will be the usual rehearsal.
   The massed concert will be at 7:30 PM (Saturday).
   The location will be Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church on Johnny Cake Ridge Road in Apple Valley, MN.
   Location of the adjudication and of the afterglow is yet to be determined.

Paul Carlton is General Chairman of the Big Sing. I will get additional details to you as we go along.

Thanks for your help getting this on the AMCA Website.
Roscoe
