  Early in the month, our Birthday Club gathered at Robideau’s Mahogany Ridge Bar and Grill in South Colton, NY.  We celebrated our members with January birthdays!

  On Saturday the 21st, we had a coaching session with Sue Melvin - one of the few Region 16 members still in our country!  We love Sue and have worked with her for years.   She gave us some new plans to work on as we prepare for April 1st.  After working hard on our music all day, she finished by giving us an opportunity to ask her any region-related questions.  She has been a great resource for us as a member of the regional management team!

  Our rehearsal on the very last day of January is our Fun Rehearsal for the month.  The theme is BYOB - which means “bring your own barbershop” of course!  Members were encouraged to send in a video of one of their favorite barbershop performances, and then we will watch them all together at rehearsal.  Maybe we’ll find some inspiration for our own performances!  It’s always great to see examples of what we are striving for, especially for new members.
