Thursday, December 18, 2008


The first semester flew by and the second will do the same with each of you as busy as you are. I am excited about Winter Guard and the season upon us, it appears as if it is going to be a great year. Keep up the good work. Over the holidays get lots of rest and enjoy your friends and family.

Oh yeah, we will have practice the Tuesday we come back to school, Tuesday, January 6, 2009, from 3:30-5:00. I will post the location as soon as possible.

Merry Christmas!

GREAT JOB!

Great job today! I am very proud of the work that you acheived today! You really got a lot done and from seeing you work with Brian it is evident that you have a desire to be outstanding. I am excited about the winter guard season and what you have to offer.

Keep up the good work.

We will have practice on Tuesday after school until 5:00. I will let you know the location ASAP.

We will also have to schedule a Saturday in January for Brian to come back and do the finishing touches. I will post that date as soon as we are able to secure it.

We will not have practice on Tuesaday, December 9, 2008, due to the band concert. This practice has been rescheduled for Saturday, December 13, 2008 from 2:00 p.m. - 6:00p.m. At this rehearsal we will spend the entire time on staging and choreography. We hope to get a major part of our show completed during this time. Please be sure to eat before you come.


We will have practice our regular Tuesday practice on December 16, 2008, to review the work learned with Brian.

Christmas Parade

The Parade was a success!

Each girl did a great job decorating the float and representing Zora Ellis and the Band. I am very proud of you and happy that we have such an outstanding group of Ellis Emeralds.
I hope you recovered from the cold. And... mental note... one cooler full of candy is not quite enough..haha... who knew. Also, If you have more pics bring them and I will add them to the blog... I can't believe I left my camera.

I look forward to the upcoming winter guard season and the fun times that we will have together!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
