GREAT JOB!

GREAT job Ladies!

I am proud of the job you did today at the pep-rally and game. Great work! The recovery that you had at the pep-rally will become one of those 'remember when' moments later down the road. It was not near as bad as you guys thought it was. Every group I have ever had has had a CD skip one time or another. However, I must say that to see a group of 14 7th and 8th graders hold their composer in front of the entire student body and recover... WOW! I was impressed!

You made up for it at the game anyway. Great performance... just great. Many people throughout the game commented on what a great job you did. Congrats!

Thanks to Lacey for all of her hard work and also to the other members of the Dega Darlins and Dega Addition that have helped and supported the Ellis Emeralds non-stop!

I will post a few pictures soon.

Good Luck

Ladies I would like to wish each of you luck as you audition tomorrow for the Ellis Emeralds. You have had an OUTSTANDING clinic week and Iwish you all the best.

Remember to wear white shirt, red shorts and white shoes.

Pull your hair back and don't forget your smile.

Also, don't forget your FLAG!

You may arrive any time after 9:00a.m. as long as it is before 10am. Some of you have expressed the need to practice and get ready at the school beforehand. That will be fine.

See you Tomorrow!
