Movin ' ' Em With The Music Concert Choir is a big family, reaching for the same goal, which is to move people with their music ■■ commented singer, Andy Flint. John Tebay, director of the group, stresses the importance of relationships in order to help the studer.is achieve their goal. One very popular and successful technique was a retreat in the San Bernardino Mountains at the beginning of the year. This living and singing together at- mosphere facilitated friendships and a feeling of unity. To make the retreat a success, Mr. Tebay need- ed the help of the council. The council were a few people who were selected by the choir. They had many responsibilities to the groups and to Mr. Tebay. They picl ed out the outfits, planned fund raisers and were in charge of so- cial events, such as retreat. Concert Choir participated in many festivals, in- cluding the Biolo Invitational, hosted by El Dor- ado. The group ended the year with a bong with the recording of their album and Take 3. This popular music concert has become the highlight of the year and featured up-beat popular se- lections and solo spots. Mr. Tebay summarized, These were a great bunch of kids and they sounded awesome. -, i- T%. ; -j -i - 3 N. Performing at their Christmas Concert, Concert Choir sings Come Let Us Worship the King.

We learn the fundamentals of sigtit reading choral music, but more importantly we learn to sing with enthusiasm, notes Becky Hen- drickson. Women ' s Chorus is the group of young, ama- teur girls who work diligently with Mr. Tebay in preparation for the advanced performing groups. Women ' s Chorus sponsored a car wash to help pay for their dresses that they had made. They also carolled at Villa De Palma Convelescent Home during the holiday sea- son, It was so nice. The people seemed so grateful that we cared enough to visit and entertain them, recalled Becky Hendrick- son. The two biggest concerts for Women ' s Cho- rus were the Christmas Concert and Take 3 which were shared with Vocal Ensemble and Concert Choir, 1984- 85 Women ' s Chorus, front row. left to right.
