Chorus Notes Sept 5, 2006 07-Sep-2006 08:19:43

**Please note that there DEFINITELY will be a photoshoot of the chorus after the Sunday concert, so please plan to stay for at least an hour after the concert ends. These photos will be used for publicity about our 60th Anniversary Celebrations!

It's time to update our look! We are introducing simple updates to our look for our anniversary season. Men will add a silver pocket square to their tuxes, Women will add a silver scarf (instead of collars and cuffs). The cost of each accessory is a bargain $5, thanks to the hard work of Patsy Wilson, Jennifer Young and some other volunteers. See below for payment directions:

It's time to pay annual Chorus dues. These funds help with costs such as the chorus computer, occasional entertainment costs, years of service pins, etc. Dues are normally $10/year, BUT-- THIS YEAR WE ARE COMBINING DUES PAYMENTS WITH PAYMENTS FOR OUR NEW COSTUME ACCESSORIES!! Please pay $15 for dues and scarves/pocket squares. Checks can be made out to Houston Symphony Chorus and given to your section leader.
