Wow! has it been a busy 10 days for choir! Thanks to all the parents who brought their singers to our out of school day events! We had 31 singers for the girls' basketball game on Jan. 22nd and over 40 singers for the boys' game last Friday. I was really proud of the way the choir sounded and how they handled themselves. The applause following the National Anthem last Friday was really amazing. I've received some very nice compliments about the choir's singing.
The 30 singers who were music ministers at Sunday's Mass at St. Anthony also did a great job! The congregation really seemed to appreciate our presence.
I want to express my sincere appreciation to our Choir Moms who have helped at these events! It really has taken some of the stress off of me. Thank you also to the parents who helped watch the clock and supervised the students at the basketball games and Mass. That support is wonderful to have!
This week we still have our choir tour ahead of us and singing at the Holy Family Art & Music Festival on Sunday. On Thursday morning, we have a bus lined up to take us on tour to Clarke College, Holy Family offices, Loras College and the Presentation Motherhouse. On this tour, we are ambassadors for Holy Family and express our appreciation to those who have connections with our system now or in the past. The students really seem to look forward to this trip. I hope the weather cooperates!

January news
Happy New Year!
January will be a very, very busy month for our choir! We will be singing the National Anthem at two basketball games this month. (The students will get in free.) We will also be the music ministers at a St. Anthony Mass to kick off Catholic Schools Week! The choir was going to sing at last Friday's Mass, but with school being canceled, we lost that opportunity. We will sing at a Friday Mass sometime this spring.
Here are the dates when our choir will be performing:
Jan. 22nd Wahlert girls basketball game
Jan. 29th Wahlert boys basketball game
Jan. 31st 10:30 St. Anthony Sunday Mass (arrive in O'Malley at 9:45)
Feb. 7th Holy Family Art & Music Festival at Wahlert
We will be very busy learning new music for the music festival Feb. 7th. We hope to also go on tour during Catholic Schools Week. Those arrangements are still being made. Watch here for the latest!
