It's another one of those times for a new beginning! The music program at Forrest Burdette will now begin its regular rehearsal schedule.
This Thursday evening at 7:00 would be a great time to give the choir a try. Donna and I are hosting the first rehearsal at my home studio at 5008 Northwest Way. We will rehearse anthems for the month of September, and at the conclusion of the rehearsal we will all enjoy some snacks and refreshments together. Choir is not an "exclusive" group of singers who read music, but a family of people who love to sing and use that love of singing to worship God. You will find it a very welcoming group of people!
Directions to my house are:
- Turn onto Cow Creek Road off of Teays Valley Road
- Stay on Cow Creek Rd. until after you have passed under I-64
- About 100 yards after passing under I-64, turn right into Woodridge Estates
- Proceed to the first "Y" intersection and bear left on Crestmont
- A short distance past the "Y" turn left on Crestmont and up the steep hill
- At the top of the hill turn left on Pinnacle View Road
- Go around the sharp curve to the right and proceed to the top of the hill
- Turn left on Northwest Way and proceed to 5008
- Parking available on our driveway or the street or at 5006 which is the Mike & Tammy Baker residence.
- Take the steps to the right of the house which lead directly to the studio.
Hope to see you there!
