Update on costumes

FIRST HALF OF SHOW COSTUME

Just wanted to give you the latest update on costumes from the costume board.  Hopefully, these changes will help the overall look onstage.

SHIRTS-White cotton button-up shirt with a collar which will go under the cardigan. 
CAPRIS- Should be mid-calf length (so some of you might be rolling them up a bit). 
SHOES- We recommend white sandals or shoes similar to keds.
(I know some of you have to wear specific shoes for certain issues and that is fine)
JEWELRY-All jewelry must be pearls. However if you are wearing a scarf around your neck, you don't need to worry about a necklace.
ACCESSORIES -We highly recommend wearing a fashion scarf in a complimentary color to your cardigan  or  a hair wrap headband.

We apologize for those of you who have bought items already. Even though we might have looked good individually, (& I'm sure the picture will be great) but as a group today, it looked a little busy and almost sloppy. We are just trying to clean up the overall on-stage look.

If you have any questions about costumes, please don't hesitate to ask one of us on the board.
Dausha, Emily, Lisa Hendricks

Collecting nursery children's hand prints =)


Just a reminder:
Tomorrow we will be collecting the card stock papers that were handed out a couple of weeks ago. We would like each child in the nursery to trace their hand prints and sign their name.  When finished there should be two card stock copies per child.  If you didn't get a card stock paper I will try to have some and you can quickly trace your child’s hand before they go to the nursery tomorrow.  Thanks! See everyone tomorrow!

TRAVEL ATTIRE FOR THURSDAY

For sake of clarification, "travel" attire for our concert consists of your cardigan, shirt, pants, shoes, and suitcase.  We will take pictures in front of the Nampa Railroad Depot.  Bring your suitcases because we will use them as decor.  Some of you will be holding them.  Some will be sitting on them.  Some will just be placed to the side.

PHOTO FOR THE NEWSPAPER!


Hey gals,  Gerry Winter is in charge of writing a newspaper article each concert and does such a wonderful job.  We have learned that if we have a great picture to send in with the article, we get a much better spot in the paper in the community section.  Gerry suggested that it would be fun to have a photo of us in our "travel" attire to go along with the theme for the show.  SOOOOOO . . . . Thursday just prior to our sing-out we will assemble in front of the old Nampa train station which is just a couple of blocks away from our rehearsal site.  We will have a professional photographer there.  Please wear your "travel" attire so that we can quickly do the photo shoot and then get to our sing-out (where we will also be wearing our "travel" attire).  If you want to have all your friends see you in the newspaper, come prepared for our photo shoot.
