Crusader Cafe Performer Sign-Up - 3rd Grade
Crusader Café is back for another year. Crusader Café is held during lunchtime and is a time where a boy can showcase his musical talents to his peers and others. Once again this year, we will be dining and entertaining everyone in the Fellowship Hall.
Because of COVID, we will have separate dates for 1st-3rd and 4th-6th. Unfortunately, parents are not allowed to attend at this time. We hope we will be able to allow parents at the April Café.
There are 2 requirements your son must meet in order to play at Crusader Café.
- He must be taking lessons (If he is not taking lessons, he must audition for Mrs. Southerland)
- He must be practicing regularly
“Practice isn’t the thing you do once you’re good. It’s the thing you do that makes you good.”
Each date can have 7 boys maximum signed up.
