Don't miss Fall Festival ...
October 1-4 in Bakersfield ... featuring the dynamic
CAROLE KIRKPATRICK!
Carole is a past President of Sweet Adelines International, and former director of Region 13's Pacific Sound Chorus (multi-time International medalist chorus). Carole is an Expression judge extraordinaire, and will be bringing her expertise to Region 11 front-line directors on Friday and to the rest of the seminar attendees on Saturday! - Have you formed your Double Quartet yet? Find 7 friends and learn ONE song - it's fun, it's funny, and a great way to get some stage experience!
- Back by popular demand - Marcia Bosma's "Me and My mp3" - a repeat of Marcia's outstanding class from Summer Sizzler.
- A special, by-appointment-only workshop - "Design a Marketing Piece for Your Chorus or Quartet" - will be offered on Friday afternoon. Reserve a 1-hour timeslot with a professional graphic designer and leave with a new show flyer or business card or brochure. Watch the R11NG for information!
- Don't miss Sunday's "Music in the Morning" with Patty Cobb Baker (Shimmer!'s tenor). Patty has been one of the driving forces behind Harborlites' two gold medals, as well as a vocal coach for several Region 11 choruses and individuals.
- This will be your last chance to give "good luck" wishes to our International competitors before they leave for Nashville 2 weeks later.
Watch your e-mail for registration packets
the week of August 3.
Registration, housing and Double Quartet contest registration deadlines - Saturday, August 29.

If you cannot see the graphics -- or if you don't see a big graphic at the top of this newsletter that says "Marketing Minute", check to see if you have a button or link at the top of your e-mail that says "Show Pictures" or "Download Pictures" (or something similar) -- clicking that should allow you to see all the graphics!
