URGENT!!! SCHEDULE & ATTENDANCE FOR THIS WEEKEND

[FAIR WARNING: You will be barraged with messages today!]

Good morning, all,

Just back from a frenetic week in the UK working out all the final details for the trip. Sorry I’ve not been more communicative lately, but suffice it to say, there’s been a significant shortage of hours these days.

MOST URGENTLY: I’m am building the rehearsal blocks for this weekend on the basis of your availability as indicated when you submitted your application, assuming that once accepted, you added these dates to you calendar. I realize that many of you have church jobs on Sunday morning, but I further assumed that you would get a sub for this very important series of rehearsals.

Now, all the more so as Paul Mealor is here and will attend most if not all of the rehearsals this weekend. He has judged this contest on numerous occasions and can speak to things we will want to know in our preparations, and he will coach the Welsh as well.

To reiterate, here’s the schedule for the weekend:

SATURDAY MORNING: 11:00 am – 2:00 pm in AED 118 (Chamber Choir time tbd)

LUNCH: (On you own) 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm

SATURDAY AFTERNOON: 3:30 pm – 6:30 pm in AED 118 (Chamber Choir time tbd)

There will be an informal gathering at Deer Park or someplace on Saturday evening for those who wish to hang out with Paul Mealor for a bit. If you’re interested in attending, please indicate that on the form.

SUNDAY MORNING: 9:00 am – 12:00 AM (Chamber Choir time tbd)

LUNCH: 11:30 am – 1:00 pm

SUNDAY AFTERNOON: 1:00 pm – 3:30 pm (Chamber Choir time tbd)

Carpool to St Helena Church in North Wilmington

SOUNDCHECK in church at 4:15 PM in the Church

EVENSONG CONCERT: 5:00 pm – 6:00 pm: Public is welcome to attend and admission is free – St Helena Church, 602 Philadelphia Pike, Wilmington, Delaware. (It’s a beautiful space with stunning acoustic.)

6:00 pm – FINIS!

Here’s a Google form if you need to clarify or change your availability for this weekend, though fair warning, I’ll be visibly irritated if you are suddenly NOT available for times you committed to in your application. Remember, we chose the weekend based on the availability of the singers. If what you see below is not correct – either way, please complete the form and submit as soon as possible so I can plan rehearsal. (That includes the “maybe” indications. Please clarify)

AND YES – PLEASE COMPLETE THE FORM EVEN IF NOTHING HAS CHANGED. (We’ll want to know if you’re coming to the Saturday evening gathering.)

In case you forgot, here is what you submitted in your application:
