Happy Mid-Semester, BHS Choir Families & Friends!We've officially made it through the middle of the Fall Semester! In this short amount of time, we've already had performances, extracurricular events and fun extra events that make our choir classes packed full of singing and FUN! It has been a joy seeing our choir students make new friends and grow stronger as young singers, and I cannot wait to see their progress and confidence come May! Below are some friendly reminders from Ms. Davis as we head into a very busy week!
BHS vs. CCHS Football Game is Friday, October 6th! BHS and CCHS choirs combine to sing the National Anthem at the "Gold Out Game" on Friday, October 6th! (Also known as Crosstown Showdown). Call Time is 6:15 PM and performance is at 7:00 PM. Students get in for free (See gate attendant - names are on the list), so students are welcome to stay and watch the game or they may also go home after the performance! Region Choir auditions are on Saturday, October 7th! Select BHS students have qualified for the Region Choir auditions on Saturday, 10/7, at Bowie HS in Austin! You should have received an email from Ms. Davis regarding logistics for Saturday. Wish our students luck as they compete against other Austin area singers to make the Region Choir and move on to the Pre-Area round! Our first Choir Concert is Tuesday, October 10th! Our Fall Concert is on Tuesday, October 10th, at the JFW Performing Arts Center. Doors open at 6:40 PM and concert starts at 7:00 PM and it is FREE for everyone!
