| Getting ready to SING!! |
Our first performance of this session was an exciting opportunity to sing the National Anthem for the Richmond Spiders' basketball game. The Singers have had the chance to sing the anthem before for different sporting events but for some reason (perhaps being inside) this seemed extra exciting.

| A lot to take in! |
I loved watching the kids faces as we walked out onto the court, through the giant, inflatable spider and fog machine, to find our spot in front of the microphones. The lights were bright, music was jamming through the speakers, players were running all around us with balls flying. I think every head was spinning to take it all in and I definitely saw some mouths gaping open!
The kids did a great job with the anthem and I'm sure they also appreciated the roar of applause as they finished. It was quite a thrill for all of us!
One of the best parts was the Spiders went on to win the game in the last few seconds! Maybe we brought them some good luck.
