Hydrate in style

We are considering ordering this water bottle for our own members use, and for sale at our events. I need to know if there is enough interest from the chorus to support a minimum order of 12. The cost would be $25 each. 

Spring Show

We will have the Old Capitol Chorus on the show, replacing the What 4 quartet. See the song show order below. Please have all the songs performance-ready by the end of February.

We will want to you to contact all your contacts who might want to attend the show. Please prepare a contacts list this week. We will follow-up with a sample email invitation later this week. 

We need to promote this so that we have better attendance.

People can order their tickets, and pay, on our website, by finding the link on the upcoming events page, or from the event in the calendar. Here is the link if you want to include it in your emails to potential customers. https://harmonyhawks.org/event/spring-show-2/#tribe-tickets__tickets-form

Spring Show ad sales

Ad sales have begun. It is critical that all of us support this either by selling ads or by asking supporters for donations or making your own donation.

Here is a check list of steps to complete this week:

  • By now you should have made a list of perspective clients, contacted them, given them a program from last year, and asked for their support.
  • This week, make follow-up contacts if needed.
  • Look for additional possible sales contacts. Ask for leads from Gary Lindsay if you are out of ideas.

If any of you would like a business card to use in your contacts with clients, please reply to this email and ask me to make some for you. I’ll have them ready for you at Tuesday’s rehearsal.

Tuesday Plan

  • “Leaving On A Jet Plan” segue
