Oct 12 (Fri) Rehearsal Times Changed!

UPDATE: We have adjusted the schedule of our Oct 12 rehearsal to make sure that Steve and Derek can make it to the Justin Bieber concert down at the 'Dome. Anyone else who is going to the concert, please come to as much of the rehearsal as you can before you have to leave see the Biebs.

We have reserved the West Stake Center for the evening of Friday October 12 to rehearse mainly in the parking lot. The rehearsal will have to start a bit earlier than normal to give us some more daylight, and then we will possibly transition indoors at 6:00 pm for the Nativity portion. We anticipate having a social activity in the Stake Center afterwards just for fun -- more details on that later.

Please make sure you come at least 10 minutes before you are scheduled to rehearse.

Note that most of the youth will not need to arrive until 4:40 pm, when we get ready for the first scene that involves everyone at 4:50. Those youth in the Chinese Heritage scene (Dragons, Percussion, Gymnasts, Fans, Ribbons) will be the first to rehearse, and should be ready to go at 4:00 pm. We realize that many of the leaders who are helping with the Chinese Heritage scene may not be available so early, but we ask you to do what you can to be there or send someone in your place who has been to the rehearsals.

Everyone will need to be in their Cowboy/Farmer costumes for the group number at 4:50 pm. This will be a good chance for costume reps to see everyone in their western costumes and make adjustments. We would like the youth to practice changing in and out of their ranching costumes and hanging them up in an organized fashion, so please bring casual clothes to change into. If you have a simple garment bag, you should bring that to hang your costume in (with your name tagged on it).

Those in the Nativity scene will need to change from their western costumes into their Nativity costumes for their portion of the rehearsal in the gym.

We will not have all the girl costumes for the Chinese Heritage scene until the Oct 17 Rehearsal, so the Fan and Ribbon dancers do not need to worry about their costumes for Oct 12.


Swag swag swag, on you
Chillin by the fire while we eatin' fondue
I dunno about me but I know about you
So say hello to falsetto in three, two,
