Man I can’t believe it has been months since I’ve posted!  Fall has been very busy for the Act’n Up! family.  We have new performers bringing new talents, lots of great new music thanks to Gina’s willingness to tailor current songs to our group, and an exciting performance schedule.  I was especially proud of kids and parents alike for your participation in the marathon day this Fall in Poway at Pomerado’s care facility and the Gateway Center.  They were compassionate, patient, they adapted to different sized spaces and time changes, and they were simply amazing.  The kids were so well-received that Gina had a message awaiting her by Monday morning requesting we return with Christmas music, and of course we agreed.

    The sound system is purchased and a great asset!  Thanks to so many of you for helping provide.  Our endeavor this fall is to work with the Ramona Food and Clothes Closet on a non-perishable food and new toy drive.  We will have collection bins available and it is one small way we as a group will give back to our wonderful community.

    Rehearsals are hectic with so much music to learn, but it is very rewarding watching it all come together.  I am hoping everyone will keep their spirits high, but really focus in the coming weeks.  The kids,young adults in many cases, are all stars to me, inside and out!  Don’t forget to email me your photos so that we can add them to our photo gallery!
