Friday Pizza

Since we have some students arriving at rehearsal at 4:30 and the majority of students not arriving until 5:30, which is too late to order the pizza and have it available for the dinner break, we will not have pizza offered for sale at tonight's rehearsal.
We will take orders for pizza next Friday, May 6th.
Please watch the Blog for more detailed information regarding pizza night at rehearsal.

Auction Donations Needed

Hello CYT friends,

   I want to make a plea for donations for our silent auction during the upcoming Charlotte's Web shows.  The auction is a great way to raise much needed funds for the ongoing success of CYT.  I know you are all working incredibly hard to get ready for the show, but if you think of something you could donate or a service that you provide that you would be willing to donate, it would be such a blessing.  

Also, if you would be willing to ask for donations from businesses that you regularly visit, go for it.   Cheri and I will do our best to get the community involved but we need your help to make it the best auction yet!  Would you help us make that happen?  If so, please bring your item or items with you to any class or rehearsal and leave them at the front desk.  I will regularly check in to pick things up. 

Thank you so, so much for considering your part in this opportunity.  Please feel free to email me at glopalau@gmail.com with questions.

Blessings, Gloria Palau & Cheri Pupkiewicz

P.S.  We would also be very interested if anyone has a vacation home that they would be willing to donate out for a period of time.  Lets get creative!!

Role Clarification

To answer questions regarding who the "animals" are in the Rehearsal Schedule.

All animals are:

Goose, Gander, Sheep, Lamb, Templeton, owl, and bat.
