Rehearsal Schedule Change from Dr. Whitmire:
Dear Singers-
Please note this very important change: Our rehearsal on Sunday, March 30 will be in our normal room in Tyler, from 6 to 8 pm. (not at Bishop Ireton as stated on your schedule). Unfortunately the orchestra has a scheduling snafu and cannot rehearse. This will be a very productive rehearsal; please do not be absent.
