Campaign Story
The members of Vocalmotive, Bemidji High School’s Varsity Show Choir, are in their 18th year of existence and are one of the top show choirs in the state of Minnesota. In recognition of this, Vocalmotive has been asked to participate in an amazing event, the FAME Show Choir National Championship Series. FAME holds competitions in Hollywood, New York, Branson, Nashville, Orlando, and Chicago, and teams come from all across the United States to compete. Vocalmotive will be competing at the Chicago competition against teams from 8 states. The top three choirs from each of these locations will be invited back for the “Finals” in Chicago in April to compete for the title of the best show choir in the country!
We need to get 72 students (includes performers, band members, and stage crew), 25 instruments and accessories, and 500 costume pieces to Waukegan, IL for the competition. This will require two busses and a large trailer. We will leave early the morning of Friday, March 22nd for the 12 hour drive, perform twice on Saturday, and return to Bemidji on Sunday, March 24th. It will be a whirlwind tour but the kids are so EXCITED. The theatre they will perform at is the Genesee Theatre and it is gorgeous! (See picture on this site)
This is a great year to go to Nationals! We have a seasoned group with 30 seniors and an amazing show entitled “Bring Me to Life”. (Click on the video above to see!) We need to raise $24,800 in order to make this happen. Please consider a donation of $10, $25, $50 or as your budget will allow. All donations, big or small, will HELP us to meet our goal. And because we are a non-profit group, your donations are tax-deductible! You can pay on this site using PayPal or credit/debit card. If you would prefer to pay by check, please make your check out to SCOBI and send to:
2113 Gold Coast Road NW Bemidji, MN 56601
Please feel free to pass on this information to other interested people. Facebook, email, Twitter, homing pigeons…..
