Good morning, Singers! We MADE it . . .Labor Day is over, the kids are back in school, and we are just weeks away from returning to our rehearsals.

Be That Neighbor needs your help. As you know, we are proud to offer many programs, all of them free and open to everyone. To offer these programs, we raise the money to pay for the professionals who lead them.

Once a year we have a fundraiser and this year's event is on September 21st, 7:00 at Antonello Hall at MacPhail Center for Music. Tickets are $100 each and are tax deductible. When you add that to an evening of listening to the incredible Steele Family entertain us, it's too good an offer to resist.

Please buy your tickets at https://tinyurl.com/2fsf2vt3.

Help us continue the Mill City Singers, the Sallie Steele Birdsong Scholarship, Yoga in the Park, and all the other programs Be That Neighbor offers the community. We are so grateful for your help.

Tell your friends, your neighbors, your relatives, and anyone you know who would enjoy this incredible evening.

We are stronger because of you!

Thank you.

It's been an incredible summer of yoga. We have practiced together every Saturday since Memorial Day and have had incredible groups of practitioners join us. Thank you to one and all.

We have one more Saturday to practice together. Please join us today, Saturday, September 2 at 9 a.m. in Gold Medal Park. Grab a friend, a neighbor, a mat, and some water and come practice with us.

We are so grateful to all of you who have helped make this summer such a success. Our instructors have been skillful and kind and have led us so very well.

Once more until Memorial Day weekend of 2024!

Missing the choir? Needing to sing with your friends again before the 23rd? I have the solution.

Join us today, Saturday, September 2nd at 5:00 in Gold Medal Park. Barb and Eben Gillespie will be leading a sing-a-long. Come! Bring a lawn chair and something to drink. It will be a wonderful time for music and community. You won't want to miss it!

Don't forget to buy your tickets for the fundraiser featuring the Steeles and the premier of the 'Be That Neighbor' video. Go to https://tinyurl.com/2fsf2vt3. You won't want to miss this amazing evening.

Hope to see you soon.

Good morning, Yogis!

Summer is fleeting, so make sure that you join us for the last 2 hours of Yoga in the Park, sponsored by Be That Neighbor. We will be practicing together on August 26th and September 2nd at 9 am. Our instructors and groups have been phenomenal.

How do you participate? Come! Grab a mat, water, and a friend and join us in Gold Medal Park for the last 2 hurrahs of summer in the park.

See you there!

Good morning, Singers.

The 2022-23 season is finished, and it was a wonderful season. From Iphigenia to Apple Valley with the Capri and MacPhail Music Matters Luncheon in between, a good time was had by all.

It is now time to plan for the 2023-24 season. I can guarantee there are new songs to sing, new experiences to have, new laughs to share, and new friend to make. Hard to argue with any of that.

Please remember that all are welcome. There is never a fee, never an audition, and never any attendance expectations. Come when you can and share you voice and your joy!

Thank you to the Guthrie for hosting us again. We are incredibly grateful for their generosity and partnership. They make everything so much better.

Here is the schedule. Please remember that changes can and will happen, but this represents our best 'guess' right now as to what the schedule will be.

You will get twice weekly emails to keep you up to date. I also post on the Be That Neighbor Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/BeThatNeighbor) and on our website at https://www.bethatneighbor.org/.

I miss you already!!

Claudia

Good morning, yogis!

What a wonderful summer we have had, and all thanks to you. We have averaged 53 yogis with a high of 72. That is just the best!

There are only 5 sessions left. We will be practicing on August 5th, 12th, 19th, 26th, and September 2nd. Each practice begins at 9 am and is free and open to all.

Invite your friends and your neighbors, and grab a towel or a mat and join us. I will be bringing Be That Neighbor water to the August 5th practice. You won't want to miss it!!

See you there---Claudia
