HISTORY BOOK CONTEST: Jody
Allen, our Region 13 Historian, is once again gearing up for the History Book
Contest and Display. This event gives chorus historians a chance to show off
all their hard work throughout the year in the form of their chorus scrapbook.
Some scrapbooks are submitted for the contest and some are
submitted for display only. Either way, it is a lot of fun and everyone enjoys
stopping by the table to look at the books. There will be a People's Choice
Award as well, which allows visitors to the table to take part in the contest.
And you
never know...there might be a twist or a surprise or two!
If your chorus hasn't heard from her, drop Jody a line at
jotenor@hotmail.com. And feel free to contact
her with questions. FORMS:
So, is the jury still out?!? You
