Membership Fees and Registration
Many thanks to everybody who has completed their on-line membership registration and paid their fees.
A few of you have registered but not paid. We’d appreciate getting those fees at the next rehearsal.
Quite a few have neither registered or paid. Please do so as soon as possible, preferably by the next rehearsal.
A reminder that the on-line registration must be completed each year in order to keep our records up-to-date.

2017-2018 - Rack Cards Ready
Dear Members,
The 2017-2018 Rack Cards are ready for distribution. They are organized in stacks of 50 and we would appreciate it you would sign up to take some to your local community centres, churches, office, condo building, etc.
You do not have to distribute them in Richmond either or at any specific location. If you see your friends on a regular basis then take a stack and give them a rack card when we approach our concert dates.
Note, that there is a new page in the Members' area called Rack Card Distribution, please sign up on that page or email me at the office directly and we'll hand them out in the next couple of weeks.
Thank you,
Meghan
Volunteers Needed for Canada 150 Concert
Dear Members,
We are in need of some volunteers for the following posts for our Canada 150 concert:
3 x Ticket Scanners - Ideal phone is an iPhone but android also works
2 x People to hand out programs
Those are the main positions that need to be filled right now but there other positions such as taking photos of the front of house, we also need volunteers to direct audience members, etc. - the more volunteers the better, there is always something to do.
If you know anyone that would be interested, please ask them to contact the office at 604-276-2747 or by email at roca@roca.ca.
Thank you!
