What is getting ready for choir tour like?
Well, there is a lot of rehearsing, organizing, mathematics, shopping, more organizing & packing!
The students spend approximately 19 hours in choir rehearsal together. In addition to that, the ensemble practices 19 hours before their weekly choir rehearsal, drama team spends approximately 19 hours & stomp approximately 9 hours rehearsing. Our band also rehearses the last few weeks before tour. Oh and by the way, those counts are not even including the time these students & sponsors spend rehearsing at home.
This year we will be taking 65 students, 21 sponsors & 1 toddler on the trip. Most of these sponsors have also been in the rehearsals with the kids each week. Those that haven't been in weekly rehearsals have given their time to help get ready in other aspects of the tour. Our sponsors also pay their own way to go on this trip. They are all excited to spend this week really pouring into the lives of these students.
In order to feed this large group of students this year, we had to take several shopping trips. Here's what it is going to take to feed this hungry bunch:
627 Slices of Meat
209 Slices of Cheese
120 Packets of PB & J
650 Slices of bread
258 Bags of Chips
258 pieces of fruit
258 packages of cookies
774 snacks
