To: Parish Priests, Parish Council Chairpersons, Choir Chairpersons, Choir Leaders, Organists
From: Dr Socrates Boyajian, Chair, Central Council
Date: July 24, 2000
Subject: Choir Annual Report and Choir Member Mailing List
Enclosed please find the Choir Annual Report form for the year 1999.
We ask that your choir's executive committee fill out the form carefully. We request that you again share your choir's concerns with the Central Council; in addition, we have provided a space for you to indicate the reasons why you feel your choir is worthy of receiving the Gomidas Vartabed Award.
The Annual Report is important to the Central Council in order to know the status of our choirs. It is also vital for us to have your choir's current executive committee and members' names, addresses, and telephone numbers in order to communicate information directly to them. A separate page is attached to the report form for updating your choir list. The Central Council requires that an audio cassette tape of your choir's Badarak be prepared and submitted along with the Annual Report form.
Please note: any report that is incomplete - i.e. missing signatures, no officers or membership list attached, no audio cassette provided - will not be acceptable or eligible for consideration in choosing the Gomidas Vartabed Award recipient.
We request that the completed and signed Annual Report, Choir Member Mailing List, and cassette tape be returned by September 15, 2000, to:
Yeretzgin Roberta Kochakian
7129 Winding Brook Ct
West Bloomfield, MI 48322
Note: The actual 1999 Annual Report form will be mailed to the parishes, and will not be posted on the Internet. Posting the form directly on the Internet is in the works for next year.
