***Girls MUST have hair pulled away from their faces for pictures, rehearsal and performances. Light make-up is suggested.
PLEASE BE PROMPT. We will not be doing individual pictures this year, but invite you to use the stage area after our performance on the 16th for pictures. Pictures will be during the rehearsal time.

Parents and siblings should NOT plan on waiting inside the school or auditorium during the rehearsal time. This really helps to have a successful rehearsal and to limit distractions for performers,.....Thanks for understanding!

Concert Venue...

A few of you have asked why we are at Creekside for concert....Many more of you are probably wondering....sooo, here is the answer.............

Unfortunately, LHS raised their rates this year to DOUBLE the amount we paid last year. The rate to rent the auditorium or any stage in Davis and Weber county is about the same rate that LHS now charges. In order to do concert at any of these venues, we would have had to have a $40 concert fee per family. I just couldn't ask that much this year, without giving advance notice, so we made the decision to do LHS every other year. So, instead of the $20 concert fee outlined in our fee schedule, we have a $10 concert fee this year.

Besides the four free concert tickets you get when paying your concert fee, extra concert tickets are $3 when purchased before the night of the show. We want everyone to get their tickets in advance, so we know how many people to expect. We still will sell tickets at the door for $5 for those that have a late addition to their party.

Thanks so much for asking, I LOVE to perform on the High School stage for many reasons. One of which is the comfort of seating, the second is the professionalism and experience it brings to our performers. I can't wait to be there again next year, AND I will be able to let parents know in advance what the concert fee will be.

See you at class!
Thanks!
Geina
