From Dave:

All volunteers, who would like to get more involved with the 2010 Annual Show production, should contact Dave Speidel.  His e-mail address is SPEIDEL_1@MSN.COM and his phone number is 952/278-4480.  A Committee meeting will be scheduled for sometime in early May to kick things off.  Thanks, Dave Speidel

From Mark:

On To Fame Show - Get your show patron lists ready because we should have tickets within a few weeks for our upcoming "On To Fame Show".  This performance can be a very important fund raiser for the chorus and should be an easy sell given the strong line-up that will be on stage.

Anaheim Financial Assistance - Fully recognize that getting to Anaheim to join the chorus on stage at the International Convention is not an easy financial proposition for a number of members.  If you have a need for financial assistance to help defray some of the costs, please feel free to talk to me or Dan Cole.

Anaheim Competitors T-Shirts – I received some information about ordering Anaheim Competitors T-Shirts.  If anyone is interested in coordinating this for the chorus please let me know (you get a free T-Shirt out of the deal)

Thanks, Mark Ortenburger
