That Rehearsal ATE

Ate: adj. Slang meaning something was excellent. E.g., "That was the most fun I've had all week! I really feel like I understand handbell ringing so much better now. I'm telling you, Mrs. Berryman's rehearsal ate!" There is never enough time to rehearse. You cannot shove more hours into a day, but you can make sure your rehearsals are as productive as possible. Learn how to manage rehearsals to keep ringers focused and moving forward.
