Dear NEWCA Members,
As you are very busy in preparing for your thanksgiving holiday, I am very
excited to report to you that our New Year Party (NYP) will be a new beginning
for NEWCA.
We were just invited by the Northeast Wisconsin Families with Children from
China (NEWFCC) to perform at the prestigious Performing Arts Center (PAC) in
Appleton on January 28, 2007 (Sunday afternoon). These purely Chinese
performances at PAC will be the first in the Fox Valley area, and will
be a highly publicized ticketing event open to general public. All of our
association members will have discounted tickets to attend the shows. This is
a great opportunity to not only enjoy the high-quality programs in a
state-of-the-art arena, but also connect with other community members and
showcase our rich and colorful Chinese culture and great traditions to
American friends.
Our annual potluck for NYP will be on February 10 of 2007 (the New Year Eve
based the Chinese Calendar, details to be announced).
In order to enrich our NYP programs at PAC, we need your help. We need to find
as many talents as we can.
Please contact me before December 5th,
1) if you have sons or daughters who have been trained in violin for more than
five years, and they are willing to join a group of equally talented Chinese
youth to perform Chinese masterpieces at a grand stage;
2) if you have daughters who are between 12 and 16 years old and are willing
to learn, practice and perform Chinese dances;
3) if you have children who are willing to learn, practice and sing Chinese
songs in front of the largest crowd that they have ever seen;
4) if you are, or you know anyone who is, a master of any Chinese music
instruments.
Please note that we need your help as well as your commitment in the next two
months. Dependent upon the specific shows you or your children participate,
your commitment to strict training and practices is absolutely essential to
the success of the whole event.
You will be very proud of yourself once you see how your hard work and great
performances are appreciated by your fellow friends in the community.
Let’s hold this historical opportunity. Thanks for your participation.
