OK, Here is the scoop…
WOW! In 1997 when River City Groove began I made a list of 20 goals I had for the group. For the last 6 years I have had one item unchecked… Wednesday night it was checked off.
Groove has been handed the grand opportunity of playing at halftime of the Timberwolves vs Toronto Raptors NBA basketball game on October 23rd, at the Arena at 8:30pm. This is in the middle of everyone’s busy schedules, but I feel, and hope all feel, it is simply too sweet to pass up. We will take all members from Genesis, Cadets, Slam, Impact, Pursuit & Summerline from any of the past years and put together a show ending with the Groove Machine. The cadences will be emailed out in a couple days after I get the roster nailed down.
Groove has 200 tickets to sell and the ability to get more if possible. Each family member needs to have a ticket and all members who wish to stay will also need a ticket. The cost is around $25 / ticket.
We will practice on Thurs Oct 15th and 22nd from 4 to 6pm. We will check out equipment at the first practice. On Friday night Oct 23 we will meet at the Armory at 5:30pm and practice until 7:15pm then load and move to the Arena.
Please contact me ASAP if you wish to attend the performances.
Thanks!
Pete
