CMT Jr: Stone Soup

Because one CMT per summer isn't enough.  When our Boston plans fell through, one thought that occurred to me was to have Dallin and Daphne direct a CMT Jr. as a fundraiser for their upcoming choir expenses.  They each earned over half of what they needed, which was great, because with two in the choir program this year at EMS, the fees were over 1,000 for each of them.  Dallin is in three choirs and Daphne is in two and I tell you what--all those fees add up!

So under my supervision, Dallin and Daphne directed a CMT Jr. for grades K-5.  They did a good job, and learned a lot about leadership, cooperation, team-work, organization, rehearsal planning, and budgeting.  It turned out to be a good thing, although it reminded me why I raised the age limit for CMT.  Those Kinders are hard to keep focused!!

I loved how they planned it and figured out what to say together.
