VERY IMPORTANT INFO.....................
From Tom Kittinger

I found out Monday, when arriving home from Harrisburg, that the Legion Social Hall is "under-construction" and we won't be able to be in there for the next two weeks. I went into "immediate panic mode," understanding just how important this week's rehearsal is going to be, and through the help of a number of people, I think the problem is solved.

REHEARSAL ON SUNDAY, APRIL 11th WILL BE HELD AT ST. MARK'S LUTHERAN CHURCH FELLOWSHIP HALL AT 129 CHARLES ST. IN HANOVER. Rehearsal will be from 2:00 - 5:00pm, and, of course, Frank Dorritie will be there to work with the horn-line. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so PLEASE plan on being there to work with him, and to have our first introduction to "MEN OF HARLECH," the selection that Frank has arranged for the Lancers. (just as a "side-note," we are considering singing the first 16-measures of this song for "indoor" shows, so those of you with vocal ability, please plan on letting us know who you are, and that you're willing to do this.....................it should be quite impressive, if done well!)

Here are directions from the Legion to St. Mark's Lutheran Church Fellowship Hall:
Turn left from the Legion parking lot onto Eichelberger Street.
Follow Eichelberger Street to the 3rd stop sign (tennis courts on the right)
Turn right onto E. Elm Avenue and proceed to the 1st stop sign
The church parking lot will be on your right at the corner of E. Elm Avenue and Charles St
After parking in the lot, enter the Fellowship Hall door at the left of the building off the parking lot
"Special Thanks" are in order for Bob Z, who acquired us a rehearsal spot at Penn State York, if needed, Barry Stauffer, the manager of the Lyric Band, who was going to allow us to rehearse at the Lyric Hall, (drum-line would have had to be elsewhere, so that is why we chose NOT to do that)
Bill Reese, who acquired permission to rehearse at St. Mark's, and Ron Klunk, who will transporting music stands to the church Sunday afternoon. They ALL managed to relieve my "panic-mode" in rather quick order. Thanks to ALL.

I'll look forward to seeing ALL OF YOU on Sunday afternoon at the church. PLEASE...................if you know of someone that doesn't have access to e-mail, or someone that was planning on being with us Sunday, and is NOT on my e-mail listing, LET THEM KNOW WHERE WE'LL BE!!!!

Thanks!

From Bob Zarfoss

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The sun is shining, and it's a gorgeous Easter. I hope you're all well and enjoying the holiday, and your family and friends.

Remember, please, that we've a basement practice for snare drummers, along with anyone else who wishes to attend, on Tuesday, April 6, at 7:00 p.m. I look forward to seeing many of you, to drumming again, and to becoming an even better drum line.
