What I just sent is incomplete. I was typing mid-sentence when it suddenly
emailed itself!
Next sentence would be:
Knowing how many singers we will have and the distribution of voices is key to
picking the best possible music for this concert.
Anyway, something like that. Keep it upbeat. Focus only on the one concert. Oh,
and add that we need to hear back from folks ASAP since time is shoet.

- I'm thinking we should keep the focus for this email on just the November
concert. Opening by mentioning the March concert makes it seem as if it is
the one we're most concerned about. Including it at all dilutes the
importance of the most pressing issue - finding out who can sing in November.
Our worry about dwindling numbers is too apparent, as well. I think the
regular attendance pep rally letter should be separate and more upbeat.
Calling All Singers!
Skillin's Greenhouses in Falmouth has generously offered us space for a fall
holiday concert on Saturday, November 21. We will be collecting food and
donations for Good Shepherd food bank, as well as recruiting new members for
Phoenix Chorale.
We need a show of hands, please, as to who can commit to singing at the
concert and regular rehearsal attendance from now until the concert and who
can commit to singing at the concert.

Greetings,
Calling all singers - in the long term - we have a concert planned for
March to raise funds for Immigrant Legal Advocacy Project (ILAP). In the
short term, a concert is being put on the calendar for Saturday, November
21, most likely to be held at Skillins in Falmouth.
Knowing who is able to commit to regular attendance and availability for
our performances is key to our planning and moving forward. Understandably
we all have Thursdays when other aspects of life takes precedence, but if
those able and willing to commit to a November 21 concert can speak up, it
will help inform and guide us as plans are put into place.
Thank you.
Best,
The Board of Directors & the Artistic Director
