FESTIVALS, FESTIVALS, FESTIVALS 2010
American Fork Junior High School Intermediate and Advanced Orchestra
Dear Parents, March 2010
Every other year we have participated in the Music in the Parks Program Festivals located at Lagoon Amusement Park. Last year we had planned on the event but were asked not to attend due to the recession. This year we have opted to attend this festival. Each year that AFJH has attended the Festival, we have received superior ratings and in 3 cases, we have received the top awards at the festival. This is a moral booster for these students that have worked so hard this year! It also gives them opportunity to be adjudicated by nationally ranked judges and compete with students outside the state of Utah.
There is a cost involved for each student. We are asking the students to please pay $50 dollars for the event. The cost includes transportation to and from Lagoon, entrance to Lagoon and Fee for the festival. Payment will be taken from March 22 thru April 30th. Please make the checks payable to American Fork JUNIOR HIGH ORCHESTRA. Many of the students participated in the fundraiser we did at the beginning of the year. If your student participated in these fundraisers, please have them contact me and I will be able to let them know how much credit they have towards this event. If your students participated in fundraisers last year, unfortunately the money that was earned does not roll over to the next year. (Please see the Orchestra Disclosure Document.) That money has been used to fund this years music, strings, repairs and operating cost of the Orchestra Classes.
Here is the ITINERARY for the festival
DATE: May 8, 2010

FALL CONCERT REVIEW
A wonderful concert was played on October 22, 2009 at AFHS Auditorium featuring the AFHS and AF JUNIOR Orchestra's. As a director, I was to thank all those who helped with the set-up, programs, decorations and the tasty samples of Allyson's Pantry. Please know that the students did their best to perform well. We evaluated our performances and discussed important details that would enhance our next performance. Thank you to all who came and supported the students and the orchestra program. We loved having you hear us play!

WELCOME TO OCTOBER
Here it is the 15th already! The past week has been very busy with many happy and sad times. We as an orchestra would like to send our condolences to AFHS marching band in the loss of their friend and director, Heather Christensen. She was a friend to us as well at AF Orchestras. We will miss her smile and her friendship. Her funeral will be held at American Fork Tabernacle on Saturday, October 17 at 11 am.
A big thanks from Mrs. Smith for the sweet comments about the marriage of her daughter Carly. Thanks to all the students and parents who supported my family at this time. It was a wonderful event!
