Gold Cup Location Changed to SAGEMONT CHURCH - Monday, February 23, 2009
Alvin Community College was damaged in Hurricane Ike, and repairs will not be complete in time for us to hold Gold Cup there. We will instead be holding the festival at Sagemont Church, in Houston, TX - it's at the junction of the Beltway and 1-45 south, across the beltway from the AMC 30 Theater.

Gold Cup Information for Parents
Dear Parents and Students:
The Gold Cup Festival, sponsored by the San Jacinto Federated Music Club, will be held on February 28th and March 7th, 2009, at Sagemont Church, 11300 S. Sam Houston Parkway East, Houston TX 77089. As many of you know, this is an opportunity for students to demonstrate their abilities before a judge, who will grade their performance. Tha maximum score for each performance is 5 points. Each time a student accumulates 15 points in any one event, he or she will receive a trophy.
You will be assigned a specific audition time, and you should plan to arrive at the church on festival day at least fifteen minutes prior to that time. Proceed to the registration desk with your original music (no photocopies) and with measures numbered. Music will be returned to you after your audition. There will be a designated waiting area for students and parents. Wait in the designated area until called for your audition. Parents and students are free to leave after the students have performed. If they are taking the theory test, they may do so at that time. Student scores will be returned to your teacher and will be available at your student’s next lesson. We look forward to a wonderful Gold Cup Festival for all!
Sincerely,
Gold Cup Committee
NOTE: Students enrolling in the vocal category will have an additional fee for the accompanist. Recorded music is not allowed.

Road Closure at Nasa 1 / Nasa Parkway / FM 528 and I 45 the Gulf Freeway - Wednesday, February 18, 2009
Dear Studio Families,
The City of Webster has issued a memo regarding the demolition and construction of the intersection of I-45 and FM 528. Since many of you use this intersection to reach the studio for lessons and classes, we want you to be aware of these upcoming construction closures and the delays they might cause so you can plan ahead. Attached is a copy of the memo. Please visit Google Maps to find an alternate route for yourself. You can also call the studio for help finding alternate routes.
Beginning Wednesday, March 4th, the NASA Parkway Bridge over I-45 will be closed. Demolition of the bridge is scheduled for March 5th through March 9th. The contractor stated that the interstate highway should be open by 5:00 AM on Monday, March 9th.
NASA Parkway will remain closed for up to 70 days (Approximate date of May 14th). Please note that the contractor has major incentives to complete this work early and will probably finish earlier than the May 14th date.
Alternate routes for the Webster area are:
