Hello choir! We’re getting there. Steadily working and learning and improving. Like the little engine that could 🙂 Practice every chance you get. We all need to have choir-on-the-brain this week.

Line order for 2026 Spring performances; chair for Kiwanis?
Hi everyone, As we get closer to our spring performances it’s time for us to start thinking about our line orders. We will have 2 slightly different positions: 1 for Kiwanis when we stand on choral risers on the stage of the performance venue, and the other for our own concert when we will be […]
Rehearsal Notes April 8 2026
Hi Everyone, Just a few more rehearsals until Kiwanis and our spring concert. It’s still CRUNCH TIME.
