<p>Your first step, I think (?), would be to have us all send you a PM with our facebook account names so that you could ‘friend’ us. I don’t think you can start a closed group unless you are friends with the people already, but I might be wrong. As to how to do the group, someone else will need to help…</p>
<p>Woot-Woot, photomom. NYC?!?!?!? Totally exciting (and a little scary for this old lady!). Oh to be a kid again!</p>
<p>Facebook - I just joined a writing group (trying to get back to it, since I may have a lot of time on my hands in a few months!), and of course the group is on Facebook! I am just starting to get the hang of it, but like ActingDad, I have been avoiding it. Clueless.</p>
<p>actually, I think someone starts the closed group that requires an invite and then I believe there is a request to join I’m not sure if we have to be “friends”</p>
<p>Wait, Marbleheader, are you on Facebook now??</p>
<p>Would love to keep in touch via Facebook! Let’s figure it out!</p>
<p>Thanks to all of you on this thread. You’ve made me laugh with recognition at the mail, email, CC obsessiveness. D just got rejected from her reach school, Northwestern today. She handled it quite well. She’s been accepted to three BFA programs that were walk-in auditions at Unifieds. Still waiting on her favorites. We want her to go to UC Irvine, as she got into the campuswide honors program. She’s got her heart set on a BFA program. Glad to hear all of your exciting news, and the encouragement that there will be life after college auditions. We’re looking at an empty nest too, so I’m all for sharing on Facebook if you parents wish to keep this going. Hope you all hear some more good news soon!</p>
<p>Oh, Heartsongmom, I’m sorry. 
I’m glad your D is handling it well. I’ve decided the parents often take the rejections harder than the kids. I’m glad she has other options, and I’m sending you tons of pixie dust for great news in the near future!</p>
<p>A most definite yes for me on the Facebook group! I want to be able to keep up with all of our awesome kids…and parents, too!</p>
<p>My S went thru the application-audition process a few years ago and is in a BFA acting program. More recently I lurk and PM more than post, but I would love to join a FB page too and see how everyone is doing. I became " hooked" on CC again while having to spend too many days inside trying to recover from a broken foot and I feel like I already know so many of you! In fact, one of the active posters and I discovered we live about a mile from each other and already had the chance to meet each other over coffee and chat! We had a great time. BTW - I had heard that there is a closed FB page for very active CC acting-MT parent posters but I believe some minimum number of CC posts was required to participate.</p>
<p>Ok, working on this now, will let you know when it is done. Want to keep it closed and kids out, if that is ok.</p>
<p>Times3 - I am in a closed group for this writing group. I don’t even know what a closed group is! All I know is that I am on Facebook, but it is a little crazy because S used my email address ages ago to set up a FB account. He now has his own, but I got a bunch of his stuff (horrifying!) so he had to modify it somehow.</p>
<p>I will be more than willing to learn so that we can hang out together, with all the other CC parents. Would love to see photos of the kids in there productions, or just having fun at college! Great group of people that I am glad I found!</p>
<p>Ok, I can create it but need at least one person besides me in it to start…so, if you are interested, pm me so I can find you on facebook so I can add you to the VERY CLOSED and private group. I have made it so that no one can see who is in it to protect everyone’s privacy as much as FB will let me.</p>
<p>Just confirming that we all don’t have to be FB friends to be in the group. This is a nice feature about this type of group page. Of course, you can friend whoever you want but someone asked the question.</p>
<p>Ok, do we want it closed or secret?</p>
<p>I lean toward a closed group? but am not adamant about it. And although we don’t all have to “friend” each other, I think we DO all have to be friends with somebody in the group so we can be invited–right?</p>
<p>

<p>Ditto this! I would appreciate being able to join as well.</p>
<p>I don’t post here too often, but I also would enjoy being part of this! I am amazed how much supported I have derived from this group.</p>
<p>Ok…closed it is, give me a few minutes!</p>
<p>Ok. I took the plunge and created a Facebook page. Is it bad form to use a photo from 20 years ago when I raced triathlons and had hair! In other words, before kids!!</p>
<p>ActingDad…most do! Or we just use our kids!!! </p>
<p>The name of the group is CC Theatre Drama Group of 2013 (and beyond!!!) and it is closed but not secret…</p>
<p>That’s exciting - thanks for doing that. Now, how the h-e-double hockey sticks do I call it up, and/or join? Pathetic, I know.</p>
