I hope everyone is having a relaxing summer. An important announcement for those wanting a head start on next year's audition music. The music is here! Call me and I'll meet you at the school to give you the music packet, especially if you need it before your summer camp. CD's of the music will not be available until the first of August. Also, if you ordered a Showstoppers video those are ready to be picked up. I'm really looking forward to another exciting year!

It's that time again! The Feast of Carols reservations are sure to sell out fast, so be ready November 4th with your reservations made and money collected.

The Region Workshop scheduled for Saturday, September 13th has been postponed. Hurricane IKE has reminded us to think about the safety of others. Consider volunteering locally by going to www.standingready.com for information about local needs. Be safe and respect the storm.

My buddy Cody has created a really cool website for the Bryan High Choir. He is a self taught computer nerd and does this sort of thing for fun. He has a pretty cool website himself. Check it out the next time you're surfing the web. www.codysechelski.com

One of the goals of this site is to improve the way we get information to you the students and your parents and maybe save a few trees in the process. We also like having fun, so we'll try and keep you entertained with videos and blogs. Feel free to make comments and suggestions on things you want to see on your site and things you want your site to do.

Here's a quick explanation of each of links.

1. HOME - Displays the quintessential choir photo, mission statement, and a few basic navigate buttons.
2. ABOUT - Gives detailed information about Bryan High Choir and includes descriptions of the choirs, faculty, and how to audition.
3. NEWS - Contains Blogs from Mr. Medlock and Mr. Urbanek that would be of interest to most all viewers of this site.
4. EVENTS - Announces upcoming concerts, workshops, and auditions. The description will often include pertinent details and directions to the event.
5. MEMBERS - Includes access to practice tracks, documents, and announcements for Bryan High Choir students and parents.
6. PHOTOS - Displays pictures from school related and social gatherings of choir students.
7. VIDEOS - Contains recordings from various concerts and maybe random recordings of hippos with noodles on their back.
8. BLOGS - Writings on various subjects from Mr. Urbanek and Mr. Medlock.
9. LINKS - Includes short cuts to a variety of cool sites on several different subjects.
10. CONTACT - Allows for viewers to make comments/suggestions and obtain further information about the site.

Another cool feature allows you to link BryanHighChoir to your iGoogle page by using the RSS feed.

Have fun with the site and let us know what you think!
