Wow! We had several very talented people turn out for auditions this past weekend! I'm excited that they work so hard, are trying to get to know each other, and were flexible in being able to switch audition sites at the last minute!
We hopefully won't have to worry about that anymore, as we now have a fairly solid rehearsal facility lined up for the rest of the season! No more scrambling trying to find a location or calling every gym in Austin! :-)
We also had our first fundraiser event, and raised about $225 dollars at the UT game. We actually raised $450, but had to split it with another group that came to help us out. I'm glad they came, because we were running a little low on volunteers there!
We have four more fundraisers lined up before the end of November, so hopefully we'll be able to raise a good bit of money to help reduce expenses for our members.
We're looking at a VERY reasonable member/performer fee, which will still allow us to attend two WGI regionals in TX, as well as all the shows we want to attend, and still pay all our expenses!
We're still looking to fill 3 more spots in our A guard, and 5 more in our exhibition guard. If you're interested in finding out more about our group, please visit our website at http://ATXwinterguard.org.
Our next rehearsal for both groups is Sunday, Nov 2, 2008 at 1 pm
Hope to see you there!
