What's New?

 

Auditions for New Members

January is a great time to bring a new member to audition for the chorus!  We have a few openings if any of your child's friends may be interested in our organization.  Just have them contact Mr. King to schedule an audition.

 Tour Update

Wonderful plans are underway for our tour in June.  There is still time for select Concert Choir members to join us if interested!   We will be venturing into the "Heart of America" through the states of Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri and Oklahoma.  The educational benefits of this year's trip are probably among the highest we have offered.  The very roots of American music will be explored - from folk music to rock to blues to country to bluegrass.  This is also our choir's first-ever tour to this part of the country!  Our choir has visited over 30 states and 6 countries, and this year's tour will bring that number even higher.


The tentative tour dates are June 17 - July 1, 2008.

This year's tour is very affordable, and there are ample opportunities this spring to raise needed funds for the trip.  We'd like for every child to have the opportunity to attend this once-in-a-lifetime trip.  Contact Mr. King for more information.
