The new school year is right around the corner and much planning has already been done to provide some great experiences for the RV Chorus students.
Students in Junior High will have the opportunity to see the Radio City Rockettes in their Christmas Spectacular in Pittsburgh this fall.
For the Senior High, a trip to Chicago has been planned. It is a trip packed full of site of the city as well as a choral clinic and a trip to Six Flags Amusement Park! As always, trips like this take money and the RV Chorus Boosters have been busy already in efforts to raise money. We have approximately $500 already toward the charter bus to Chicago :) On top of the bus fee, each person will be responsible for raising about $390. Hopefully we can get a good portion of the bus paid for so that each person doesn't have to pay much more than the $390. Keep in mind that a deposit for each trip will be required the first week of school to reserve your spot!!
I look forward to seeing you all soon!

End of the Year Fund-Raisers
Yard Flag Fund-Raiser
All flags are only $5
Profit is 50% !
Money and orders must be turned in by Friday, February 6th.
Checks can be made payable to RVCHORUS
We will be selling Pizza Pub pizzas in March.
Keep in mind that the only need for money for the remainder of this year is to purchase show choir t-shirts and to pay for guests at the the senior banquet. As always, fund-raisers are optional but they are a great way to boost funds for future years, as your money carries over until you graduate. The senior high chorus will be going on a "big trip" next year and each student will probably need somewhere around $500. Its best to earn a little bit of money at a time.
Happy Selling :)

District Chorus
Thank you to the dozen or so of you who auditioned for the District Chorus Festival. I know it can be quite intimidating to sing alone but I'm proud of you for taking a shot anyway!
The selection process will take place on October 29.
Some things to keep in mind...
*Redbank is required to take at least 4 students to the festival.
*The most students Redbank has taken is 7.
*We have a bit of an advantage this year because 2 of our students get to return automatically because they did so well last year.
*If you don't make it through the selection process, please don't think its because you don't deserve a chance to go...just know that the numbers are limited and that makes it very difficult to get everyone in.
GOOD LUCK :)
