Hello YIS Families,
​
I am eager to announce that the Red Paw Chili Supper will be Saturday, October 22, 2016 between 5:00–6:45 PM. You are invited to sample 20 varieties of chili with all of the fixings — then vote for your favorite! There will also be hot dogs, corn bread, scrumptious desserts and amazing raffle baskets. Dinner entertainment will be provided by the YHS Band, Orchestra and Choir Ensembles with a finale by the Marching Foxes at 7:00 PM. This annual event helps sponsor music ensembles in our district, such as our Choir Field trip to the Paramount Theater!
 
This is one of my favorite events of the year as it brings the community together with music and food!
 
For more information, please see the attached flier!
 
Mr. Ryan Martinez

Choir Parents,

Your 6th grade choir student is invited to participate in a field trip to the Paramount Theater in Aurora, IL. The Yorkville Music Department is extremely happy to offer this opportunity to all 6th grade choir students district wide. We will be attending a performance of Disney’s Little Mermaid which is part of Paramount’s Broadway series. “The blockbuster Disney movie comes to life in this awe-inspiring Paramount production that is perfect for the young and the young at heart." This exposure to musical theater will enhance your student’s understanding of this genre of vocal music.
 
We are need of chaperones! If we have a large response, we will do a lottery for chaperones. All chaperones will need to purchase their ticket at the rate of $15 as well. Sack lunches can be ordered through Aramark (Please see attached sheet.). Or students may bring their own sack lunch. All forms are due back by Monday, October 24th. Financial assistance is available. 

The Yorkville Music Boosters has funded a generous amount to this field trip to keep cost as low as possible. We are very appreciative and grateful for their help!
