Wow! What a Weekend for Tech! & Christmas Eve Crew

*** Lots of important Stuff, please READ!!!***
Cantata a Success
Awesome job everyone. We had a packed weekend and everything went great. The "cantata" was received very well. People thought the we did a great job. So thanks to the whole team, Katie, Rick, John, Robin, Andrew, Mark, Jim, Ralph and Jay. 
 
B&G Club Rocks the House!
And WOW!  I say again WOW! How can I describe the Student Luau? I can't. And it wouldn't have happen without everyone's help. There are too many to name, I would be afraid I'd miss someone. But I do want to send a BIG thanks to Robin fro the sound system. It would not have been a "rock concert" without the PA!
Also a big thanks to those who worked so hard lifting and setting up the lights. Everyone, even a few who were skeptical, agreed that the night would not have been same without the lighting. Again, SO many people helped with that, and I'm sure several of them are even more sore than I am this morning!
The next big night for Students will be the Super bowl Party. And look for a lighting work day in the future for the sanctuary.

Please RSVP, as I don't need a HUGE crew, just a few hands will do. You can learn how to light, shoot, and conduct a video interview.

News and Crew For Sunday December 10

Sunday December 10 Crew - Winter Team A
This Sunday, there are a couple special things happening. First, the bells are playing at 8 and 11 AM services. Second, the children are performing at the 9:30 AM service. They will also be doing all the tech, so most of you will get a break at 9:30. If you would like to help mentor a child on tech, please feel free to stay and help, otherwise meet at the stage immediately after the 9:30 service to reset the stage for the 11:00 service. Thanks.
  • Lighting Director: Jared
  • Video Director: Rick and Cory (8)(training)

  • Cameras: Ralph (8&11), Michael (8)
Help! Help! This Just In!
I was asked by Julie Robaus to have tech support for a rehearsal of the Children's Musical on Thursday, 6:30-8:00 pm. This is open to Team Captains and other highly experienced volunteers. You need to know how to turn on all the systems, video direct, and be a general supervisor. Please e-mail if you can help. Thank You.
