FNL DVD's and end of the year wrap-up

Thank you Choir Families for an amazing 2013-2014 school year! If you ordered an FNL DVD those have been mailed to you. If you have not received it within the next few days please email amy.krinke@leesummit.k12.mo.us. Also, the Senior Slideshow was not included in the DVD this year. If you would like a copy of the Senior Slideshow, you can pick one up at the main office here at LSW during normal business hours.

As we conclude this year, I want to once again thank and send our well wishes to Ryan Sullivan – who forever is a Titan, even though he’s moving to Texas! Thank you Ryan, you have impacted so many lives in your short time at LSW. We will miss you tremendously, but are so excited for you and this new chapter. Good luck to you!

Have a wonderful summer everyone – See you in August!

Amy Krinke

FNL – required for all choir students – ticket and t-shirt information

Dear Choir Families:

“Friday Night Live” is approaching quickly and it is SATURDAY, May 10 at 7:00 p.m. If you are new to the choral program, “Friday Night Live” is the primary Fundraiser for the Choral Department, and the funds raised at this event sustain the choral department for the next school year. FNL is a student-led variety show that features all of the LSW choirs as well as soloists and small groups. It is a high energy and entertaining night, and the kids have an incredible show this year! We have gone over all of this information with classes, so the kids should be able to provide information as well.

FNL T-Shirts: T-Shirts will be on sale TOMORROW, May 1st and Friday, May 2. The T-shirts are adult sizes Small through XXL. They are $10.00 per shirt. Students ordering a shirt must bring their $10.00 no later than Friday, May 2. Shirts will be delivered to students on Wednesday, May 7. Please make checks payable to LSW.

Tickets: This year we are trying out some new options with tickets to meet the needs of our patrons as well as our Choral Department. There are two types of tickets available: General Admission Tickets and VIP Tickets. Tickets will be ‘pre-sold’ in choir classes the rest of this week, and will open to the general public on Monday.

General Admission Tickets are $7.00 in advance, $8.00 at the door. This is the same type of ticket that we have had in the past. Seats are first come, first served and seating may be limited unless you arrive early to stand in line.

VIP Tickets are $20.00 and are assigned seats in the first several rows of the Center Section of the PAC. Advantages to a VIP Ticket are 1) having the best-available reserved seat, 2) enjoying a front and center view, and 3) no waiting in line or needing to arrive extra early 4) a couple of other fun surprises 🙂

** Performance at FNL is a required part of each student’s semester grade. Students must perform with their choir in order to earn their concert points. Since this is a fundraising event, students who want to watch the show from the PAC must purchase a ticket for themselves. Watching the show from the PAC is not required for a grade.

Thank you for supporting FNL! Please stay tuned for more specific information regarding call times, costumes, and other details. We look forward to seeing you next weekend for a great show!

Friday Night Live Info

As Friday Night Live approaches, there are several pieces of information we wanted to share with you to ensure that the evening goes smoothly. If you have not been to FNL before, it is a student driven variety show that is very different from a traditional choral concert.

Tickets: Every person watching the show in the PAC (students included) must have purchased a ticket to the event . Tickets are $7.00 if purchased in advance. If we have unsold tickets left, they are $8.00 at the door (cash or check only). Tickets are sold during all lunch shifts (cash or checks to LSW). Friday night, the doors to the PAC will open at 6:30 PM, the show begins at 7:00 PM. Seating is general admission and will be on a “first come, first served” basis. All patrons entering the PAC will turn in their ticket and have their hand stamped as they enter. You must show your stamp to re-enter the PAC. The hand stamp is new protocol this year. We will also be broadcasting the show in the choir room for the choir students who do not have a ticket to watch the show in the PAC.

DVD Sales: DVD’s will be available for purchase on Friday night through New Emotion Films. There will be order forms in your programs to fill out and turn in at the New Emotion sales table during intermission and following the show. DVD’s are $15.00.

Tomorrow’s Dress Rehearsal: Tomorrow during each class period, we will have the ‘dress rehearsal’ for FNL. All students must bring their costumes to school tomorrow. If you are hearing about FNL costumes for the first time, your student has had this information for several weeks:) Each class has been given complete information on what they need to do for their costume.

Last but certainly not least: Thank you for supporting this even t! Friday Night Live is the primary source of funding for the entire choral department and sustains our department so we can continue to provide basic necessities and opportunities for your students. The kids have a great show prepared for you that promises to be very entertaining. We are looking forward to seeing you all Friday night!
