Wayns Weekly 26th November 2024
Final push on ticket sales
Now is the time for a final push on tickets for next weekend. Please put up any posters that you quite haven’t got around to, and make sure any flyers are put to good use – please think about village noticeboards, cafes, newsagents, your local church, your front window. Every little helps! Some of us have found that sharing the flyer image on neighbourhood WhatsApp groups can be remarkably successful. Here is the flyer.
2. Flyer Amnesty
If you have a few flyers that you won’t get around to using, do please bring them back so we can use them next week in city centre hotels.
3. Christmas Card Sales
Thank you to all those who have bought Waynflete Christmas cards, we have sold 122 packs so far and it would be great to push that up to at least 200 . They will continue on sale for the next two rehearsals at £5.00 per pack. This is a fundraising initiative and if we sell all the cards, we will raise close to £900 for the choir, which goes a long way to covering the cost of a decent soloist for a concert. Those that don’t sell will be saved for sale next year. To remind you, it’s £5 for a pack of 6 cards. Click here for a look at the front of the card.
4. Rehearsal - Saturday 7th December - 1pm to 4pm
5. Christmas Market - Thursday 5th December 5pm
There’s still time to sign up by clicking on to this website. We have 11 Sopranos; 10 Altos; 3 Tenors and 9 Basses……so far!
John Lunt (B2) will be conducting us and has kindly put together a ‘programme’ all from the Green Carols for Choirs 1. Please find the list here - and bring it with you on the night. Try to look as colourful and festive as the weather allows and don’t leave your smiles at home!
Please aim to turn up for 4.50pm so we are ready to sing at 5. I suggest you enter the market either from St Swithun’s Street or via the slype, so avoiding the potentially large queues by the West Door.
