Tour Information

Hello Choir Parents! All members of the Concert Choir should have received a letter to take home concerning this year's Spring Tour. Members of Concert Choir, Vocal Ensemble, Band, Orchestra, Percussion, Dance Company, and Productions Company are invited on this year's tour. The proposed dates of the tour are 23-30 March 2013. It will be a maximum of $850 per student to attend. We will be going to Disneyland for the week and attending festivals sponsored by Disney. Other activities include going to the beach, on a dinner cruise, and attending a Broadway Musical. (A loose schedule was included with the letter sent home.)

The tour has been approved by the Board of Education, but still needs to be approved by the parents. The letter that was sent home with the students had an approval form attached that NEEDS to be turned in by every parent no later than October 12th. We need 80% of the parents to approve the tour in order to go forward. Approving the tour DOES NOT mean that your student has to go on tour. Tour is optional, and you can approve the tour and still choose not to send your student on Tour.

For those of you who will be attending, please note the following financial information. Payments will be due in five sets:

• $150 on 12 October
• $150 on 9 November
• $150 on 14 December
• $150 on 11 January
• Remaining balance (up to $250) on 15 February

You may choose to pay more than the required amount before these deadlines, but PLEASE meet these deadlines, as we need to reserve tickets to our activities. Fundraising opportunities will be available, including an Program Ad Sale fundraiser that is going on right now and a Cookie Dough Fundraiser that should start soon.

Most of this information is in the letter that was sent home. Please read it carefully and discuss tour with your student. Again, please return the approval form as soon as possible, and no later than October 12th.
