Homecoming Carnival, Pep Rally, and Game

9/29/2015

0 Comments

 
It's homecoming week here at Clear Creek! Which means our choirs have two upcoming performances along with our Chamber Singers performing at the annual Homecoming Carnival. 

Homecoming Carnival - Friday Oct. 2. During Lunches
During all lunches of Friday, the annual Homecoming Carnival will take place in the school's courtyard. Our Chamber Singers will provide the only live entertainment for the Carnival. Students in any other ensemble do not perform for the Carnival. Creek Choir has a booth during the festivities where we sell concessions such as water, soda, and most importantly deep fried Oreos! Each class is responsible for donating certain supplies for our booth. These items are due by Thursday, October 1.

Cantabile (2nd period): Paper Plates
Concordia (3rd period): Dasani Bottle Water
Advanced Women (5th period): Regular Oreos
Symphonic (6th period): Canned Soda (Coca Cola Products)

Students or parents will drop these items off at Mr. Park and Mr. Stultz's office before, after, or during school. 

Homecoming Pep Rally - Friday Oct. 2. During School 1:30pm 
 All Clear Creek Choir members will perform the National Anthem for the school pep rally. This a mandatory grade and will count as one of two major grades for the first-nine week grading period. All students will report to his or her 7th period and wait to be released for the pep rally via announcement. Once dismissed, choir members meet in the CCHS Orchestra Room and check in for attendance. Dress code for this performance includes only our 2015-2016 Choir t-shirt. Mums, in addition to other homecoming related decoration will be allowed as long as they do not make noise or light up during the National Anthem performance. This specifically is related to bells on mums. 

Homecoming Football Game Friday Oct. 2. Call time 6:00pm and Football Game at 7:00pm
All Creek Choir members will perform the National Anthem at our Homecoming Football game at Veterans Memorial Stadium (home stadium at CCHS). This also is a mandatory grade and will count as one of two major grades for the first-nine week grading period. Students will meet in the CCHS Orchestra Room at 6:00pm and check in for attendance. Dress code for this performance is considered more formal than the earlier Pep Rally:

Men: choir t-shirt/ black pants (no denim)/ black dress shoes
Women: choir t-shirt/black pants (no denim or leggings)/ black dress shoes or flats (close-toed) 

Clear Creek Choir student are only required to stay for the National Anthem performance. Once we are finished, students can choose to stay for the game or go home. 

All Choir Students that sing the National Anthem for the Football game will receive free admission. Students are more than welcome to change out of his or her formal attire after the performance. However, if a student wants to stay and attend the game, he or she will need to change in a restroom within the stadium. Once a student leaves Veteran Memorial Stadium for any reason, they will not be allowed back in without paying for a ticket.

Students are responsible for transportation both to and from the Homecoming Football Game. Choir members are allowed to stay after school on Friday in the band hall, but will still need to figure out a ride home after the National Anthem Performance. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact either Mr. Park or Mr. Stultz

Dynamo Game/ Concert Dates/ Homecoming

9/22/2015

0 Comments

 
DYNAMO GAME:

We've been talking about this a lot in classes for the last week and a half, so hopefully you've already gotten the information from your son or daughter.

On Saturday October 10 (evening game starts at 7PM, we will be leaving in the 4:00 hour), the combined Clear Creek Choirs will be performing the National Anthem before a Houston Dynamo soccer game at BBVA Compass Stadium in downtown Houston. The Dynamo are playing a charity game against the Mexican team Santos Laguna. It should be a packed house and a great time.

There is no requirement or expectation for students to participate, but it is an incredibly fun event every year - there's nothing like singing the Anthem from down on the field and then hearing 25,000 people cheering for you! Nonetheless, participation is optional.

All students who are performing must purchase a ticket and ride the bus to and from the game. Participating students must pay $25 each ($20 ticket, $5 each to offset the cost of buses).

All friends, family members, teachers, and community members are encouraged to join us as well. Tickets for all non-choir students are $20 each.

As we have been talking about with the kids in class, payment for tickets is due tomorrow, Wednesday, 9/23/15. Please send exact change (cash) or make a check payable to CCHS Choir Booster Club in the amount of $25/choir student and $20/extra ticket. If you would prefer to use PayPal, please e-mail me so I can give you the information you need.

FALL AND WINTER CONCERT DATES ARE SET - PLEASE ADD TO YOUR CALENDAR 
Our two required first-semester concert dates are finally set. Due to construction, our auditorium is not available for use in the first semester. I have been working all summer on trying to secure a place for our concerts, and it proved more difficult than expected to find places that would work. But we finally have locations for both.

Please add the following dates and times onto your calendar immediately. These concerts are required and a major grade for every choir student. All students will participate in these regardless of eligibility. More details on the concerts will follow at a later date.

Fall Concert will be on Thursday, 10/22/15, at 7:00 PM at Webster Presbyterian Church.

Winter Concert will be on Thursday, 12/10/15 at 7:00 PM in the Clear Springs HS Auditorium.

HOMECOMING WEEK NEXT WEEK - MANDATORY PERFORMANCES 
Next week is Homecoming Week here at Creek, and the choir has a couple of required performances.

On Friday, all choirs will sing the National Anthem at the Homecoming Pep Rally during school. Students are required to wear their choir t-shirt.

On Friday night, all choirs will sing the National Anthem at the Homecoming Football Game at Veterans Memorial Stadium. Students are required to wear their choir t-shirt, formal black pants, and formal black, non-heeled shoes. Students must arrive at 6:00 PM for warmup. Students will gain free admission to the Homecoming Football Game, but there is no requirement or expectation to stay for the game. Students' obligations to the choir will end when we are done with the Anthem. There will be no supervision of students after the Anthem is complete. Students may either stay at the game on their own or go home immediately after we are done with the National Anthem.

Please note that both of these performances are required performances and major grades. Students' grades will be deducted for improper uniform/attire or for arriving late.

T-SHIRTS

Choir t-shirts are in and being sorted. They should be handed out in classes this week.

Please write Mr. Stultz or I if you have any questions.

Thanks!

Mr. Park
