Morgan has decided that a rehearsal tonight is an unnecessary health risk until the situation is clearer and out of concern that there will be very low numbers. It is our hope that all will be well in a fortnight. Meanwhile try a web search of recordings of our current repertoire and hopefully some parts are on their way. Spare a thought for Morgan too who is also preparing to teach high school students online!
Stay safe and well everyone. Marion

This Tuesday 3rd August is our scheduled rehearsal. At this stage it will go ahead though our friends who live in the Lockyer or who have been in one of the LGAs from Saturday 1am are in lockdown restrictions until they are lifted.
Please check the website here on Tuesday for confirmation

Come and join us making music while we can this Tuesday 20/7. 6.45 for 7pm start. Thank you Morgan for fabulous rehearsals and music to sing. See new music under repertoire if you didn’t get along last time. 🙂

Term 2 of Choirbolical starts this Tuesday 6/7/21 with new music (find 3 new pieces under Repertoire tab!) Morgan is adding a couple of Jazz numbers to our list.
6.45pm for 7pm start.

Dear (once) Choirbolical Chilly Singers,

It is with some sadness to hear from James that he has had to cancel the Chilly Sing. Such a disappointment. The decision based on participants & workshop presenters unable to attend in NSW and growing concerns. James anticipates the event will be rescheduled… Great news! I am happy to refund Registration and Coach fees now or in the future if you request, otherwise I will keep these as a credit for his future rescheduled (not so Chilly) Workshop. I have a list of all your payments from the Bendigo Bank Statement.

Thank you for your patience and we can now look forward to our Spring Sing at Highfields Primary School on Saturday 9 October &, the Jazz Club, likely for Friday evening,19 November. Please pencil these dates in your diary!
Warm Regards,
Rob

Here is Rob’s email in case you missed it.

Dear Choir Travellers,

Seems that it’s a day to day feast of COVID restrictions, lockdowns & opinions.
At this stage we have confirmed attendance for 20 of us, some 16 folk on the 6am Coach & others travelling independently to Tenterfield.So what do you need to do:

1. After 6pm tomorrow (72 hours is required before travelling from NSW to Qld) complete a https://www.qld.gov.au/queensland-travel-declaration   (pl click this link). 
2. If you haven’t done one before , it’s very straightforward, takes a few minutes and its sent to you by email. You can present this on your phone entering Qld or print a copy and bring this with you.
3.  You don’t have to complete a Declaration to enter this area of NSW!!  
4. Let me know if you have any dietary requirement by Friday so I can advise Haley at Chilly Sing 
5. If you haven’t already done so, pl transfer your $30 Registration and a further $40 if you are on the Coach. I will be sending Choirbolical names for Registration on Friday and paying as a group on Sunday.

I will advise you immediately if there are any developments that affect us. Kind Regards, Rob

It is promising to be a very chilly sing so rug up well for our pop up sing in the park Saturday 19th 10.15am. Botanical gardens in a sheltered spot somewhere in from the cannon.
