Skyline E-Communication
Feb 9, 2002
All DUES must be PAID up THROUGH MARCH
in order to compete. This is not optional. Region 8 and Sweet Adelines
International would get very cranky with us if we included an ineligible member
at competition.
CREATIVE TEAM for May 11 Show will
meet Tues 12th, 6pm. Please bring in what you’ve done so far for the
show to discuss with the committee.
"This Tuesday at 6:00 pm, there
will be an EXTRA R&B for 10 FEET and MAMA. Everyone is welcome, but this
session will be especially designed for our newest members who may have missed
the initial teaching of choreo on these 2 songs. We'll be teaching and
demonstrating both songs from the beginning! Feel free to bring your music,
wordsheets or videocameras to create an individual learning tool to practice
with, if you'd like. We'll start at 6:00 SHARP!" Kim Andrews
Upcoming REGIONAL EDUCATION EVENTS
include Grand Junction, May 17-18; Sterling, June 7-8, and Aug 16-17 in Estes
Park, with Dr. Greg Lyne and Marcia Massey, faculty. So, mark your calendars.
Amy Munnell will be getting more detailed information.
Peggie Watson reports: "SPECIAL
EFFECTS will be delivering a singing valentine to Larry Green at Channel 4 at
1:30 on Monday. He plans to film it and, barring any more important news item
(Osama Captured!), we should be featured on the 4 o'clock news (and possibly
the other later shows as well) on Monday. I’m trying to arrange a delivery to
Jim Benemann at Channel 9 on Monday, too. Thanks to Diane Page for arranging
these for free Skyline publicity! What a gal!"
TICKETS to our MOTHER’S DAY SHOW will
be available the first of April. We will have room for only 329 at the dinner.
Cindy Munnell will supply details later.
Please PUT YOUR NAME ON YOUR TAPE
RECORDER. Many recorders are being left at rehearsal and we don’t know who
their mommies are. (Why not just stick on one of your return-address mail
stickers?) If you are missing your recorder, please see Liz Simmons.
Are your EARRINGS ready for CO
SPRINGS? Please check on them, and let Shirley Ilgen know if you have any
extras to return or if any need repair. If the backs have come off, Shirley can
glue them back on.

Our hearts go out to BETTE ROONEY,
whose son died in an avalanche while skiing in southern Colorado;
and former Skyline member KAREN GREER,
who's mother passed away after a long bout with cancer. You can contact Karen
at 16788 Clayton Road, Wildwood, MO 63011
GINNY WHITE wants everyone to know she
is okay. She has been diagnosed with arhythmia and is seeing a cardiologist.
She says thanks for your concern. She’s resting at home if you’d like to call
or email her.
