Hello to all over this beautiful summer weekend! With BCAS rehearsal only a few days away, please see the message below from Samantha Cook, BCAS member at large and member of the recruitment and retention committee. We have an exciting season planned and cannot wait to see old and new friends on Wednesday!
We on the Recruitment and Retention Committee are excited for you to meet the new members who will be joining us for 2018-2019.
New members who have auditioned and been admitted have already been sent some FAQs along with directions to how to find the room at Sweet Home. They have phone, email, and text communication with a designated committee member to help answer any questions before their first rehearsal, and they have been informed of estimated costs for their first semester, BUT we know we can do more. Here is where we need your help.
New members have been invited to a special “get to know you” mixer at 6:30 on September 5, before the first rehearsal. If you could come 10 minutes before rehearsal starts and say hello, we would really appreciate it. If not, can you reach out during the break? All new members will be wearing a special sticker on their name tags.
New members are also being comped two tickets to the fall picnic. When you show up day of, please help make them feel welcome.
Finally, we know costs add up when you first join BCAS. If anyone has extra choral wear, patriotic ties, or pashminas they would be willing to donate to our incoming members, we (and they) would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you, and I cannot wait to see you all September 5.
Best,
Samantha
