This Week
Thursday (10/19), all FHS singers and orchestra members will travel by bus to King Philip HS for an evening combined rehearsal. Bus will leave at 5:30pm from FHS and return around 8:00pm (possibly slightly after). If any of you have a sports game that night and are planning to go after, you must be driven by a parent. Students can carpool together provided a parent is driving, and permission is given for each student riding via email.
Friday (10/20), Annual FMA Cookout for all FHS and 8th Grade Musicians and Singers. Please wear your new choir shirts (arriving next Wednesday). Meeting at Ahern at 5:00, there will be a cookout, followed by combined national anthem at the football game!
Next Week
Thursday (10/26) Voices and Strings Concert!
Rehearsal that afternoon for all performers, 3-5pm
Dinner, 5-6pm for all performers
6:30 Warmup, 7:00 Concert
Choir Performance Attire
Choir dresses/blouses that were ordered should arrive on Monday. Ties for the men were already distributed--these should be worn with a black suit, plain white dress shirt, and black dress shoes with dark socks. Once I distribute the ladies' concert attire, please try on the concert attire to make sure it fits comfortably. Sometimes the floor length dresses need to be hemmed. If something doesn't fit, we can send it back for a better size, but we may need to wait until after the first concert.
Vocal Health!
The next three weeks contain a lot of singing! Just like athletes, we must take care of our bodies to ensure we can perform at a high level! This means making healthy decisions, balancing your time effectively, and getting proper sleep.

A full email with registration details will be coming on Monday
Lets have a fantastic productive final full week before our first concert!
