HISTORY
For the past 24 years, the highlight of the year for the Cottonwood 3rd Ward has been it's annual Lip Sync Event, with acts from each ward organization and hosted by various individuals. There's basically no talent needed, just the skills most people already have- acting like a big star and making it look convincing. (Kind of like singing in the shower) The soundtrack, lights, and energy of the audience do the rest. A great costume always helps. It's the stuff great memories are made of.
What When Where
Wednesday, April 22 2026
7:00 PM
3rd Ward Cultural Hall
Everyone is Invited- Family, Friends, Neighbors. (Sorry, no pets)
How Does It Work
Every ward organization typically participates. Primary Groups, Young Women, Young Men, Elders Quorum, Sunday School, Relief Society, even the Bishopric- (Oh Yeah!). No one is safe.
What You Should Do
This year's theme is the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame. Select a song to perform to from any artist inducted into the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame. (The Lip Sync committee reserves the right to veto any song not deemed 'family friendly').

By March 8th, please let Phil Forsey know which song you've selected. We can provide editing help as needed. In the event of duplicate choices, you know what they say- first come, first served. Phil's number is 801-979-3300. His email is [email protected].
Q & A
What if we (I) don't want to do it?
Unfortunately, that's not an option. The Brute Squad has typically been employed in these kinds of situations. You might even be called to be in charge of the whole thing the next year.
How long should our performance be?
If the songs good, and you're good, we don't mind how long you do it. If you're less than stellar, we have a big hook on the side of the stage. And we're not afraid to use it. We're even toying with the idea of borrowing AGT's big red buzzer. You should probably do at least 2 minutes, to give time for those who are asleep to wake up and see some of your act. You choose. I mean, how long can a song be? (Knights in White Satin, Bohemian Rhapsody are definitely out.)
What if we can't get our song to you by March 8th?
Yes, we've contemplated that. You're still in. Get us your song as soon as you can. We know how hard it is to get some people motivated.
Can you help us edit our song?
Of course. We have a whole studio of engineers just waiting to slice & dice your song any way you like it.
Will there be food?
Yes, but you might want to eat something healthy before you come. You know how refreshments can be.
What If I still have some questions?
Awesome! Shoot Terri Forsey a text at 801-809-1330. If the boss doesn't have the answer, the hired help might. Phil's number is 801-979-3300
