Take Note choir performs throughout the Council
Auditions being held for new members


Take Note, the Girl Scout Council choir, performed the National Anthem at the March 28 Aeros hockey match. Take Note is led by Beth Watkins. Teen girls can audition to be part of the choir.

Take Note, the GSSJC Choir, has been busy this year singing the national anthem at several events, attending music workshops, and cheering its favorites at the Sweet Adelines International Region 10 Quartet and Chorus Contests.

Choir members are looking forward to a full summer of activities including: a summer music camp on June 18-20, Harmony Sampler workshop on June 26, singing the National Anthem at sporting events, and preparing for a busy fall. The fall schedule will include singing at Girl Scout Day at Six Flags AstroWorld, a choir retreat, hosting a Council Sunday Sing-a-long in October, and more.

Choir members are girls from all over the Council in grades 7-12. The choir is directed by Beth Watkins and assisted by Sally Ison and Karla Fenton. The choir holds monthly rehearsals at the Girl Scout Center, usually from 3 to 5 p.m. on the second Sunday of the month. There are no rehearsals in July and December. To schedule an audition or for more information, contact Melinda Gaskill at 713-292-0232 or mgaskill@sjgs.org.
