BET YOU WISH YOU WERE HERE, TOO!!
SUCH CONCENTRATION...
SUCH ATTENTION TO DETAIL!!...

OH, MY!! DID WE HAVE FUN OR WHAT!?!?!


Having a little trouble adjusting my photos...which are far from perfect, as are all of my pics snapped in the SPC..anyway, here is the alto section and a few of the men working on Twas the Night Before Christmas on Saturday...
I'll come back and add some names..
Ok..front row:
Kevin Fardink, Dennis Heslink, Mark Humes, Sonya Shampoe, Kelli Brigham, Loujean White, Jodi Jackson, and Maggie Bemis, who also served us as accompanist on several numbers...
In back is Tanya Legters Anderson.



Pretty much the whole front row of star singers...
Front: Lucinda Legters, Debbie Jones, Lucille, Becky Faulkner, John Neckers, Randy Shampoe Sr, Dennis and the same as above list.



Behind: Randy Jr, Janet Heslink, hair, Cindy Willink, Beth Smith Barnes, Diane Heslink, and Connie Rice...







The Bass section ...taking a picture of the photographer!!
These men in the back are Wayne Oonk, David Condon, and Eric Legters, with Norvel Willink and Randy Jr, in front of them...



The morning back row..
Oh, there's Vicki Smith with Judy Willink and Joanne Hoffman, Juanita Holthouse, Mira Lou Hill Thompson, and Wayne, David, and Eric.



In front you can just see Kathy Crowell.





...and a little more of the soprano section thrown in for good measure
Elaine Caflisch, Kathy Crowell, Kim Huntley, Candy Magraw, Laura Caflisch, Deb Johnson, Norvel, Randy Jr..









Our Fearless Leader, Suzanne Rhebergen



Notice the edge of Beth Phelps, master page turner for the day and accompanist for this selection and several others, Theresa Lombardozzi. Jenn Schruers was our other accompanist, but we had to share her with a funeral and a wedding during the day!! Thanks so much ladies!!





Chatting in the back row...

















No animals were harmed in the making of this performance...










Hey, perhaps we'll be back next year and we'll see you then!! You won't want to miss it!!





If you have some pictures, send them to me and I'll try to post them along here, too!!

Oh, and that whole Chinese Student thing from WVU... I ended up with 6 delightful students from Thursday to Sunday. When we were together, we had a great time. They had a good long weekend and now they are probably almost back to the campus!! This is a good program that Findley Lake United Methodist participates in. And I don't have one single picture, but Sam tells me he will email them to me, so I will post if he does. They went to Post's Fruit farm as one of their outings and picked a bunch of blueberries that they left for me. AWESOME!!

What a terrific experience the concert was!Such fun! And for such a worthy cause. I'm old enough to remember the men who gave their liveswe honored at the concertn But singing with Suzannne conducting masde the years melt away...it felt like being back in high school chorus again! Let's please keep up the momentum from this event...and maybe do a Christmas concert and one next summer. And their are any number of causes we could sing for in the future. Maybe money to buy toys for some of the Clymer kids who may otherwise go without Christmas gifts...or buy food for s foodbamk. In these tough times, we have families in Clymer who are strugglng financially. I'd be glad to help in anyway I can to keep up the good work we did in this concert.Feel free to contact me if you need help plannning for future concerts
future future concerts.
