Every rehearsal since our fabulous retreat with coach Kim Wonders has been intense — but fun — as we work toward our regional contest in May. There will be two “firsts” for that occasion: competing virtually by submitting a video (optional during the pandemic) and competing in the Open Division category. Open Division means that in no more than ten minutes we will perform a skit that includes three songs (not the traditional two), some spoken lines, and the use of props. The Open Division submission will be scored differently than a traditional package.
