We have a change of plans for tomorrow night. Instead of going to the nursing home, we will have a short devotional and those who are participating in LTC will present their programs. They need a “live” audience to practice in front of. Please plan on coming and helping to encourage your peers as they prepare to perform in Indianapolis this weekend.

All – below is an e-mail from Whitney about LTC practices…CLICK HERE and send a blank e-mail if you want to get the updates from her.
The following is a schedule of LTC practices for the next few Sundays:
12:00 – 12:45: Drama/ Jr. Puppets
12:45 – 1:30: Chorus
This schedule is tentatively for 3/7; 3/21; 3/28; 4/11. There will be no drama or chorus practice on 3/14 or 4/4 because I will be out of town on these dates. Dawn may, however, want to meet with the puppet groups. Of course, we will still be practicing after 4/11, but the schedule may change depending upon what progress we have made. Please plan for these dates and times and remember to bring your lunch so we can eat immediately after Bible classes. Thank you so much for your commitment and dedication—you all are AWESOME!!!!
For His Glory,
Whitney

Bring: sleeping bag & pillow - you will be staying in the dorms - probably sleeping on the floor, couple changes of clothes, money for meals (Dinner Friday night is on Harding) - if you know college students, they may have extra meals you can sponge.
Lodging: You will be staying in dorms. If you have a college student you want to stay with...SEE ME to work it out.
What to expect:
· DO NOT MAKE PLANS TO GO OFF CAMPUS WITH COLLEGE STUDENTS, we will do things as a group.
· You will have free time.
· Plan on meeting Mark Pruitt on Friday, going to chapel and a class or two (if you have a specific class you want to go to let me know when you sign up).

· You will NOT be allowed to go off campus without an adult. (me).
· I will be staying off-campus.

Chaperon: minor need for a female chaperon...this could be a mom of a student going or a mom of a Harding student who is there you just want to hand-deliver cookies or just someone who wants to go. Your transportation would be free but you would need to find lodging and pay for your meals.
