Our 2008 catalog with registration form is now on line!
Hi, Everyone!
We are happy to be receiving many registrations from literally all over the world! Please review our catalog to see all the interesting classes we're offering this year.
I regret to announce that because of illness in the family, Dr. Scott Peterson will be unable to be our Chamber Chorale and Festival Chorus conductor this summer. We will be announcing plans for those classes by next week, hopefully. Our thoughts are with Scott and his family. We'll miss him.
Thanks again for encouraging your friends to register!"Each One Reach One" really works! And it helps us promote the Festival without spending money!
And thanks, too, for understanding that is helps us financially and time-wise if you pay by check rather than credit card. If you must pay by credit card, I will certainly understand. Many people tell me they had no idea that we had to pay a merchant's fee to give you registrants the opportunity to charge your registration fee.
We are very 'non-profit'! If I were a for-profit shoe store, for example, I'd just simply charge more for the shoes I sell to help cover the merchant fees! We want to keep our reg fees as low as possible to give many people the opportunity to be able to 'afford' to register. Payment by check does help us keep our registration fees low! Contact me if you have any questions about this policy.
That's about it for now. It's fun picking up the mail every day and finding lots of registrations!
Cheers,
Jo Ryman Scott

We need your help: We know that more than 90% of our new participants register because a friend, relative or teacher has encouraged them to do so.
Our slogan this year is:
"Participate in 2008! Each one reach one!"
We have a phenomenal two weeks planned. We're all working hard to make it our best one ever
