 Many students in Minnesota are enjoying the long MEA weekend, but 50 Bemidji High School students have been putting in marathon hours learning choreography. Members of the Bemidji High School Vocal Motive Show Choir have been learning choreography for this year's competitive show titled, Durell. The dance moves come from professional choreographer, April James, who flew in from Los Angeles just to work with the group. It is a lot of long hours. This long weekend is crucial for getting Show Choir ready for their season. This is a huge weekend. This is after this. We start rehearsing after school and getting ready to perform, but this just kind of sets the pace. This is an incredibly good team this year with the attitudes. They have wonderful attitudes. It's a young team, a lot of new kids, but it's a real fresh feeling in there. The kids are really excited. Monday will be the public's first chance to hear members of the Choir program perform during the annual fall concert. The concert will begin at 7.30 and it takes place at the BHS Performing Arts Center.
