Nicole's Thanks
Nicole asked me to pass this along to you:
Dear Storm Singers,
You really made my Senior recital special. Thank you so much for giving up your afternoon on Sunday to come and sing. I got so many compliments about our group and how great we sounded.
Love you guys,
~Nicole
Concert last night!
What a great concert we had last night. As I mentioned in the concert, I felt it was the most prepaired and musically satisfying concert that I have had in my tenure here at SQHS. They keep telling me that things just keep getting better the more you do it, well it certianlly seems to be heading that way. THanks choristers for all your hard work and thanks parents for your support of our program.
Looking forward to Caberet!

Edmonds Jazz Festival
Good times were had by all at the Edmonds Jazz festival on Saturday. We sang beautifully and had a great clinic. It was good to see the other groups and great to see that Soundsation is still doing it right. Although it was a lot of sitting, I think it was well worth the trip.
Now lets get to that contest music.
