Make sure you watch The Ambassadors tomorrow, we have an awesome show and it would mean a lot to us if we had standing room only in our Concert Hall. Good luck to the people competing!!!
Good Luck to all groups competing, I'm kind of the Show Choir Nerd of the Ambassadors, I will be hosting Norwalk, if you want to say hi, I'll be in a blue dress shirt with a white tie.
Yay for show choir nerds!!!! (which really is pretty much all of us that come on here)
