2020-2021 SEASON
FALL SESSION (AUGUST 31-DECEMBER 14, 2020)
The Choral Guild Board of Directors and Staff have been meeting over the summer to formulate a plan for safely resuming rehearsals and performances for the Fall Session. We solicited input from Guild members through our 2020 Membership Survey and greatly appreciate those who participated and offered valuable comments.
The results showed that though the majority were willing to adhere to any safety measures put in place, only 52% were willing to begin on August 31. Some who indicated that they would not return on that date expressed that they would be more willing to return in January 2021. In addition, Rockdale County has continued the closure of the Rockdale Auditorium until further notice.
After much discussion and out of an abundance of concern for our members, the Board voted to cancel the 202 Fall Session. It was not an easy decision for your Board to make, but I believe that it was the right one. We all feel the loss of being with our CCCG family and the joy of singing!
With this decision made, the lack of a Fall Session creates concerns for the financial stability of our organization. Some expenses continue even when the Guild is not meeting. Therefore, the Board of Directors has committed to pay their fall membership fees to help assist in meeting our financial needs. We are asking every member to continue their membership in the Guild by paying your $55.00 membership fee. Please make your check payable to the CCCG, with “Membership Fee” written on the memo line, and mail it to:
Covington/Conyers Choral Guild
Post Office Box 1132
Covington, Georgia 30015
Thank you for being an important part of our CCCG family. I express my personal gratitude to each member of the Board and our Staff for their work in making this difficult decision. May we all continue to strive to make the Covington/Conyers Choral Guild the best community chorus in metro Atlanta. Until we sing again!
