From Vacation to Vacation

My last entry was at the conclusion of our dumb week in January - a ridiculous delay in posting, but it has been an extraordinarily busy winter and spring term. A great deal has been accomplished: we have welcomed a new Cathedral Organist, we have nearly completed a school campus master plan, we have made significant progress with our capital campaign, we had a highly successful concert season and we have completed our eighteenth year of service to the liturgical life of the cathedral and the wonderful young people who make up our academic community. The choir assisted with it's last service of the term at yesterday's 11:00 AM Mass. It has been a busy, but very fulfilling, year.

Happily, I have returned home to Grays Harbor County along the Pacific Coast of Washington state and am enjoying time with my family. I hope that all of our Choir School families enjoy these weeks of summer and have time for recreation and rest. We will be returning soon for the Solemnity of St. Mary Magdalene, our patroness, and for the Chorister Summer Camp in the last week of July.

I wish you all a very rewarding and restful summer!
