Wrapping Up Another Great Year

a person.  We look forward to seeing everyone there.

I would like to mention again, we have planned another show that will help us prepare for our Annual Spring Show.  This year we will be singing in Junction City in a benefit for the Geary County Arts Council.  Gary Drake has helped us do the legwork in setting up this performance.  Mark your calendars NOW, the show will be March 6th.  This will be another great opportunity for us to prepare for the spring show and even sell a few advanced tickets to the show.

Finally, the search for workers has heated up somewhat.  There is a heavy-duty search in mo

tion to find a few people to fill openings on our staff.  We are in need of a Librarian and Property Manager.  There are other positions that we are working to fill as well.  We have been working for some time to fill these positions.  This is another opportunity for other great Barbershoppers to step forward and contribute to our already great success.

Sincerely,

Rodney
