I think it is Ken Fisher, not Ken Whitney.  Sorry about that, but I’m sure.  Clare

Maybe Terry Wright, as he had done barbershop singing before we joined OE in1969.  Terry died from cancer in 2005, just before his third grandchild was born.

Jean, Beautiful letter.  Are these minstrel people all coming to the HDP event?   Wow!  

I thought of David Zahrt, Michael Shaw and some others who did Barber Shop singing.  I believe John Treise was one of them.  Can’t recall the 4th.

Jean Long here -
So thrilled that the thought of singing once again brings joy and anticipation to our hearts!!!

We are singing again here in Chicago - with harmony!  One more reason for all of you to consider joining us in October (9 - 13) to help create the celebration of the Band of 24, the unveiling of the archives website and the creation of a list of tags (labels) that will allow people and organizations who would not use our jargon to reach the wealth of information we are putting on the web.  We will have a roving minstrel band singing the songs of the 24 plus these others that memory is calling for us to sing again.

Additions to the minstrel crew - Pam Bergdall John Tresise, David Scott, Joyce Sloan, George and Carol Walters, Mary Warren Moffett, Ken Whitney, Carlos Ollison, Bob Booher.  Forgive any omissions -  tried to remember the Great Hall and the groups who were the "minstrels".

Well, now we have the choir for the internet and two groups of minstrels - and no rehearsals needed!

When else could you spend a week @$30/night (single) and $45/night (double) to ensure that our wisdom gets into history - and enjoy a mini reunion?  We will have archive CDs (singing of the Order), documentary of the community on westside DVD), etc. for sale.  Also books (History of Order, ICA, Courage to Lead II 0 Brian Stansfield) - and your books if you want to send us 10 copies. 

...and we will be calling to catch up on your journies.

Our connection is forged in the commitment, blood, sweat and tears we were all driven to give to alleviate the suffering of the world - it is sacred and we are blessed to know each other in the sacrifice we shared - and have continued in dispersion.

the bond is unbroken,

Jean

    A suggestion to make it more gender neutral, in the first column the third box change it to, "It's then I honor them, though they be foe or friend."

      Remember the Contemplation song?  Here's the deal . . . We get 16 or more (or fewer) of us to video record ourselves singing the song, and then compile it and put it on the ICA Research Channel on YouTube.  Who is in?
            CONTEMPLATION
            Tune: Those Were the Days

            When in the midst of strife
            The other strikes my life

            And that encounter 
            Will not let me flee

            It’s then I honor him 
            Though he be foe or friend

            And I become the 
            All that is not me. And in my past I find
            The fatefulness of time

            But then a transfor-
            mation comes to me

            I then begin my poem
            In mystery alone

            And I am Adam
            In all History And the Not-yet I see
            Is cut from under me

            So fast it comes as 
            Possibility

            Then my reality
            Is change externally

            And I become the 
            All of yet to be And deep within I see
            The fact that I just be

            And unrepeatably
            This one this self

            Free passion then I live
            My depthless life I give

            I find that I be
            Being in myself.
