[Blgspops] Looking forward

[shauna at bresnan.net]

Hello everyone!

 Here is the proposed calendar I put together last week:

	Proposed Calendar for Billings Pops Orchestra for the 2015 – 2016
Season

 2015:

 Early August – Music Committee meets to discuss selections for the
Fall and Christmas Concerts

 August – Jacquie has filing cabinets to donate to John to hold
music, they should be available by mid-August. Once they are delivered
then there will need to be a couple of work sessions sort and re-file
music. This will be scheduled sometime during the summer, depending on
John’s availability.

 September 3 – Potluck at John’s House to kick-off the year. Music
suggestions will be considered as well as the annual board member
vote. Any other things that need to be discussed will be announced
before the potluck.

 September 10 – start fall rehearsals on Thursdays at St Luke’s.
Doors to the practice hall will be open by 6:30 – 6:15 if the
weather is cold/snowy – and baton down at 7

 October 29 or Nov 3 – two possible Fall Concert dates. Could be
held at the Library, could be done at St Luke’s – completely up to
the orchestra as to venue.

 JOHN - Please verify the date of the concert!

 Dec 6? – Voices of Christmas concert with the Shrine Chanters

 Dec 10? – maybe a nursing home performance? After that, Holiday
Break

	During the break we should have a Music Committee meeting to discuss
the Spring concert playlist. We will also need to hold a board meeting
– these may happen together they may be separate. It will depend a
great deal on people’s schedules.

 2016:

 Jan 7- Start rehearsals again.

 Start promoting the Red Lodge Music Festival Scholarship – update
the website and the application with the proper dates for early
registration, etc.

 April 28 or May 5 – Two possible Spring Concert. Dates. Again,
venue and music quite open at this time.

 Summer break.

 That's all I have for now!

 Jacquie
