Attendance Policy:
In order for a musical organization to achieve its artistic goals, quality rehearsal time together is imperative.  Every member should respect the others in their attendance habits.  Chorus members should miss no more than three(3) rehearsals. Attendance at dress rehearsals is mandatory. Attendance at sectional rehearsals is also required. If a singer is to be absent from more than three(3) regular rehearsals he/she must discuss it in advance with the Music Director in order to continue participating.

Chorus Dues:
There are no dues to sing in the chorus.  However, we are a 501(c)(3) and your tax-deductible contribution is always appreciated. Ticket Sales: We are asking chorus members to be responsible to sell 5 adult tickets to any of our 3 concerts this season.  Tickets are $15/adult and $5/student.

Performance Attire:
Men will wear a basic black tuxedo with plain white shirt, black bow tie, and black dress shoes.  Women will wear ankle-length black skirts and black dress shoes, and are responsible for purchasing a concert blouse selected by the Board.  The cost of each blouse is $59.

Perfume/Cologne:
Please no perfume or cologne at any of the rehearsals or performances. Some people are allergic.
