Hi All

Just added some more things to this email started last week.  Sorry it is a bit long.  Also my Doodle has died so can’t double check the people who have signed up.  

RAISING MONEY TO SEND TO UKRAINE

Thanks to those people that responded to the question of singing for Ukraine at St Edwards Church.  For those not on WhatsApp it  was to find out if members, if they were available and  would like to  help with singalong  from shows at a  Concert to raise money to send to Ukraine. I do not have anymore information on this yet but as soon as I do I will pass it along.  Well since starting this letter I have now found out that it is not going ahead.  The chap that was trying to organise has pulled the idea which is a shame.

ANNUAL DINNER AT THE PRINCE CONCERT, 71 Victoria Road Netley Abbey SO31 5DS 26TH MARCH 2022 

Just checking that I have everyone who wishes to go to the Dinner at the Prince Consort and I haven’t missed anyone.  I don’t think I made it clear that you can bring  someone along with you and also if you know any past members that would like to come they are more than welcome. Eric has now sent out an invitation with Menu and details of payments.  Could you please reply to Eric ericgerrey@aol.com

SINGING AT THE MAYFLOWER

Just checking again that I have not missed anyone.  There was someone call A Phone who I am not sure who that was!?  We should be getting the backing tracks and words to rehearse at home and we will also try and arrange a rehearsal together before the event.  We are looking at the Saturday 30th around 4 pm at the Methodist Church for a bout an hour?

If you have a close family member (who can sing) or friend that would be willing to put in the practise and come to the rehearsal then I can see no reason why a few  should not be included but we I would need to know very soon.

I do have a few more details now – Greg the MD has been quite poorly with Covid and is only just getting back into the swing of things so is catching up with things. – There should be about 100 singers from 4 different choirs. – There will be seats on staging for the singers when not performing – Dress code is 99% black (dresses/tops/trousers) just to be uniformed together as a massed choir.  (I am assuming the 1% is accessories?) – Music and backing tracks hopefully coming out this week.
