Fourth of July parade!

One more thing.... (smile)
The kids have the opportunity to represent Club PLAY in the 4th of July parade here in Anacortes!  Will you  let me know if your kids have permission to participate?  We'll be meeting at the corner of 4th and Commercial at 10:30 am. The kids will be wearing costumes, either something they have at home or one of the ones I'll be providing.

BUT....... the kids would rather RIDE than WALK, so..... do you have a truck (or know anyone who does) who would be willing to drive it in the parade?  Your help is very much appreciated!  We've only got a few more days.... (I know, it's last minute).

So, all I need other than a truck and driver is permission from the parents!  Thanks again, and hope to hear from you soon.

July Show - "Just a Taste"

Whew... VBS is almost over, and this coming Sunday we'll be picking up again with practices for the July fundraiser show!  The show will be performed on Sunday, July 22nd at 5 pm.

Practices will be Sundays at 12:30 - 1:30 in the sanctuary and Tuesdays 1:00 - 3:00 in the cry room.
Kids can come to both Sundays and Tuesdays, or one or the other.  We only have three weeks, so we're going to do as much rehearsing as possible!

The costumes will be provided, the kids just need to wear a plain solid-colored t-shirt and jeans or shorts.
Thank you!  Hope to see you soon!

Happy Summer!

Hello everyone!  I hope you all had a great Father's Day last week.  Summer is officially here, and there's only one day left of school before break!  Yay!!
So, I thought I'd touch bases once again and remind everyone that we are having rehearsals this Sunday.  VBS starts on Monday, so we're going to run through the skits we're doing for VBS.  Everyone please bring your scripts!  Thanks.....  I'll have a few extras just in case.

AND - this summer (July and August) we're going to have rehearsals TWICE a week, Sundays at 12:30 and Tuesdays at 1:00, so you'll have the option of coming either Sunday or Tuesday, or both if you want!  I hope this way we'll have more opportunities for people who want their Sundays to be family days, and more time to work on memorizing lines together.  : )

Also, I'm hoping to meet with all you "nuns", but I have yet to hear back from you as to whether you're available this Sunday, the 24th, at 1:30.  Please let me know! Thank you.

Just in case there's any confusion....

Hello everyone!  There is a lot going on with Club PLAY at the moment, so I thought I'd sum everything up briefly, so it won't seem confusing.

We're not meeting this Sunday because of Father's Day, so you can all have a break.  :)

On Sunday, June 24th, we're going to go over the VBS skits, to be ready for Monday the 25th.  These are skits that everyone will be doing each day at the start of VBS.

On Sunday, July 1st, we're going to start focusing on the things we'll do for the July fundraiser dinner and a show event.  This is the "While you were sleeping" and the "Newsies", so far.  We'll work on these July 1, 8, and 15, and the event is scheduled to happen on the evening of the 22nd.

After that, it's back to the "Silver Screen" play, which will happen in late September.
In the meantime, all you kids, please be working on memorizing the scripts for the July event!  It's okay to have scripts on stage for the VBS skits, so you don't need to worry about that.  :)

Thank you everyone!
Also, I still need to meet with all of the "nuns", so will you please RSVP and let me know if Sunday, June 24th at 1:30 will work out for you?  Thank you!

July FUNdraiser.....

Hey again......
Today was the first day that we started practicing the skits we'll do for the July Dinner and a Show FUNdraiser.  We'll be doing a scene from "While you were Sleeping" and a scene and a song from "Newsies", along with one or two other things to make the show last about 30 minutes.  We had fun today (or at least I did)!
We're going to be taking a break next week for Father's Day, and then on the 24th we're going to run through the skit we'll do during VBS.

July 1st, 8th, and 15th, we'll be practicing the Fundraiser skits again, to perform it on the 22nd of July at 5pm.

There are still some parts open, if you didn't make it today!
Have a great week and I'll see you soon!
Tia

Sunday June 10th

Hello everyone!

Just to let you all know, this Sunday after second service is the fundraiser event for VBS.  So, the plan is, there's going to be a lunch, so we can all just go and participate it that, eat our food, and then go to rehearsals when the fundraiser dessert auction begins.  That way, we will be done by 2:00.  I hope this works out for everyone! Missed you all last week!  Can't wait to get together and have fun practicing stuff for our own FUNdraiser show!!

Sick Day....

Sorry everyone, I had to take a break, feeling under the weather.  I will be emailing everyone their scripts for VBS, and next week we'll pick up practicing the July FUNdraiser acts.  Also, please remind your kids that if they have any scenes from books or movies, or something they've written themselves, to have it ready and turn it in to me next Sunday so I can go over it and see what we can include in the July show.

Thank you!
Hope to see you all next week

June 3rd Rehearsals and so on.....

Just letting you all know that there will be a slight change for our June 3rd rehearsals.  I will still have the scripts for everyone with their parts for the VBS skits, but we're going to start practicing a bit for our July fundraiser show.  (For the VBS skits, it's okay if people will still need their scripts on stage, but for the July thing, we really shouldn't).  So, I have a few acts lined up that we can do in July, that should be fun.

I have told the kids that they can choose something that they like as well, either from a movie they like, or something they've made up on their own.  If they have them finished by Sunday, they can turn them in then.  If not, they'll have until the 10th to turn them in, so we can finalize what will be included in the July fundraiser show, which is (tentatively) scheduled for July 22nd.  The whole length of that show (along with the dinner fundraiser) is going to be about 30 minutes.  That night, we'll also have some items for a raffle.  I have two items so far, with the possibility of another (Thank you, Michelle F.) , so if anyone has any ideas of what we should have, or has anything they might consider donating, please let me know!

Club Play's email is clubplay2012@yahoo.com, or you can email me at elliesauntie96@yahoo.com, either one is fine.

Also, all you NUNS ....

How does Sunday, June 10th, at 2:00pm sound, for a meeting to touch bases and assign individual parts?  We can run through the song then, just so we're all on the same page.  In case you, by any chance, aren't familiar with the song, here is a link that you can click on to see it:

Please RSVP and let me know whether or not you can be there!
Thank you!
Have a great week everyone.......
