ZIONBUILDERS Part I (How We Came Up With The Concert)

It was one of those ordinary days when I received a message from Amie. She said that Spencer wants to talk to me. I thought they need a favor or might want to order some slimming pills or glutathione injectables! I was wrong. When Spencer called me over the phone, he said he wanted to revive the concert we had almost 26 years ago! It was the Zionbuilders concert. The concert we still remember until this day because it was one of those very memorable, very successful and we really worked hard for that event that was staged on the 90's.

My first question was: who will finance? Second question was: who will choreograph? These two things, I believe from my experience were the most important aspects in making a concert this big. He said he will take care of it and we will talk to Renren so he could teach the kids dance moves and choreography. We started from there.

It was the last week of September and we barely have few weeks before Christmas. Kids would be busy by then but Spencer was positive, "we can make it!". He contacted Renren but he was busy. So we proceeded with other plans- contact the youth presidency and had them help us get through with the planning. No meeting was done except on one Sunday when we asked the youth to come for a very quick meeting, hence we decided the date of the audition and the date of the concert as well. Ihonestly  feel like these kids weren't interested at all. I couldn't see any enthusiasm! But parents of the former Zionbuilders were wearing big smiles when they heard that we are to revive the concert we had on early 90's. We then set the audition date on the 1st week of October. 

Still with no concrete plan, we proceeded with the audition. Part Ii of this blog consist of the audition process. Way to go.......
