No Excuses - photos from today!

 Choir updates 
Dear [FIRST_NAME],

Thank you to the 30+ participants who came along today! We have a fantastic plan for the month ahead to bring our Concert to the masses and raise funds for Impact, so I hope everyone who has registered will get involved. I've pasted the revised schedule further down this message.
 

Invite others!

The more the merrier so please help spread the word. The registration information/dates etc. have now been revised. Here's the registration link to share: https://acu.edu.au/noexcuseschoir/

Catch up

If you weren't there today and want to get caught up on the new plan, please watch the recorded session HERE.


As promised, here are some images from our session today.


Singing

This is from the Zoom recording. Zoom has automatically removed your names and anyone whose camera is off. This is an example of what the choir will look like in the "performance" videos we will record in Zoom.

Smiling

This is a screenshot I took during our session when everyone was smiling. Compare this to the first photo. Looking up and at the camera will be better for the audience.
