Hey guys:

Your next upcoming event to pay attention to is:

Date: Tuesday, December 6, 2011

Time: 10 am - 1 pm

Event: Ga Tech Men's Glee Club (at Clayton State University)

Cost: $5.00 - due Friday, December 2nd

THANK YOU!

I would like to thank all of the students and parents who helped to make last night's concert a huge success - you looked great and sounded great as well. It's been a tough road this semester, but it all paid off in the end! I would also like to thank those parents who responded to my call for supplies - we are now a well-stocked group in every item I asked for! You guys rock, and it's good to know people still want to help! I hope you all enjoy your week off; we all need the rest and the time away from each other I think. :) Take the time to relax and enjoy your family. When we come back we will dive right back in to fundraisers and holiday performances, culminating in our annual Holiday Spectacular show! (And parents, I will be calling on you to volunteer your time and talents to help us set up for this major event.) Thanks again!
