Dear Band,

Sorry for the late note. I had planned on getting this out Sunday, but just ran out of steam. It seemed like I turned a major corner Friday and have been getting much better every day. Consequently, I may be getting too active, too soon.

Bill Clements has been moved from the hospital to The Oaks. He will be doing some rehab work as he regains his strength. I am sure that he would love a visit or a card.

I want to thank Larry, Bill, Richard and Beth for their support and leadership. I appreciate their willingness to help out. After listening to the rehearsal tape, it was obvious that we had several players missing.

I hope all of you will make plans to be back at rehearsal, Tuesday. We will use Tuesday’s rehearsal to determine which songs we will perform for the concert and begin to concentrate on the major issues of each song. I plan on being there and would like to see you.

The remaining rehearsal schedule is :

Tuesday, October 8

Tuesday, October 15

Tuesday, October 22

Tuesday, October 29

Tuesday, November 5, Rehearse in the Sanctuary

Sunday, November 10 – Concert

Below is a list of songs we will concentrate on this Tuesday. PLEASE ADD TO YOUR MUSIC FOR TUESDAY Armed Forces Salute, 552

I am looking forward to getting out of the house and in front of you again.

Take care and thanks for all you do.
