President's Message regarding
Spring Concert Rehearsals
Happy New Year!
I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and that this coming year will be everything you want it to be. I also hope we will see your smiling face returning to the Hartford Community Chorus for another season of singing and camaraderie. As you may know, our first rehearsal is Tuesday, January 10th at 7:30 pm (registration starts at 7 pm).
Due to upcoming budget issues, the Hartford Recreation Department has raised our registration fees from $10 per season to $20 per season. We realize that in these times, this budget increase may be a challenge for some. If this is the case for you, PLEASE let us know and we will address the situation on an individual basis. At the same time, it should be understood that this fee provides plenty of value for the investment (equates to less than $1 per rehearsal).
Ruth and our library team have been hard at work coming up with an eclectic mix of pieces pertaining to the various times of the day. Although the title of our spring concert hasn’t been finalized yet, as of this morning Ruth is considering “Music of the Night…and Day.”
As with last season, to avoid crowding and distraction during our valuable rehearsal time, we ask that you come a few minutes earlier to register. During the month of January, we will have the registration table set up each Tuesday from 7-7:30 pm, and rehearse 7:30-9:30 pm. To save time, please feel free to print the attached registration form and bring it completed to rehearsal, or you may also fill out one of the forms available on site.
If you have any questions regarding the upcoming season, please do not hesitate to reach out to Ruth at 262-673-3704. We look forward to seeing you soon!
Thanks,
Aileen Thorne, HCC President
