Cumberland Valley Sampler

10/25/2021

Hello,

My name is Linwood (Woody) Payne, a recent (2020) retiree from CASD, Marion Elementary 4th grade. I am the producer of a long-running, family-friendly, musical-variety show called “Cumberland Valley Sampler,” a daughter organization of the Chambersburg Community Theatre, Inc. We are preparing for our 2022 show, “Salute to Fashion,” which will be held on Saturday, March 5.

We are looking for students of ALL ages, as well as adult males to participate as chorus members. (There are currently sufficient adult females registered.) If you would be interested in more information, please email me at [email protected]. This exciting venture involves a VERY limited time commitment and there is NO CHARGE to join.

See our page on FaceBook for pictures.

Regards,

Woody Payne

PLEASE READ AND RESPOND TO THIS POST- IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO HEAR FROM YOU.

THANK YOU.

Hello,

"Salute to Fashion" is our 2022 show and is scheduled for presentation on Saturday, March 5. Rehearsal dates are still unconfirmed at this time, except for Thursday, March 3, at the Capitol.

Many changes have taken place since we last met. We've ridden out a storm in different boats with a myriad of outcomes. You may have served in the midst of the hurricane or maybe hunkered down in the trenches. But one thing for sure, our lives are not the same.

Therefore, this message-

At this time, I need to know of your interest in the Sampler. PLEASE select one of the following choices and reply to this email.

Remove me from the Sampler mailing list.

Keep me on the mailing list, but I am NOT interested in the 2022 Sampler.

Keep me on the mailing list. I am NOT SURE about my participation in the 2022 Sampler.

Keep me on the mailing list. I am DEFINITELY interested in the 2022 Sampler.

Other response.....

Now it is possible that you may have come in contact with others who may be interested in the show- especially pre-schoolers and children, as well as teens and adults. Please put them in contact with me .

If not enough people show interest, we will cancel plans for 2022 and possibly the future of the Sampler.

I MUST hear from you by the end of July.

Email me at [email protected]

Looking forward to getting back together.

Regards,

Woody

Fifteen years ago last month. The horse was for children to mount and have their pictures taken. I didn't have in mind "SENIOR" children. I did not know that my parents did this until I saw the pictures. CVS staff and crew keep secrets well. Remember the "fake ballerina?"
