THE JOY OF SPRING

With Spring just around the corner, planning is well under way for our annual Chorus fundraiser -
The Voice of Spring
The Heart of Erin - ladies chorus - and the Novapop chorus are polishing up their favourite new pieces to share with this year's audience.  [The Bluez Note Chorus has now closed - members are resting until a new chorus forms next year]    Fingers crossed that this awful flu bug that has been plaguing our region this winter will make itself scarce for this event.

Proceeds from the event are going this year to LIFELINE.   If you've been along to the Voice of Spring in past years, you'll be looking forward  to an afternoon following our usual format.....  *a short bracket of songs from each chorus  *a delicious afternoon tea  *a few games of bingo  *a Table Trivia Quiz  *a short comedy spot [this year with Rob Byrne] ..and *drawing the raffles .  We've got a great swag of prizes lined up for you this year including a 2 night B&B stay  and a very generous Art Class package.

The afternoon moves swiftly - we fit all of that into the space of just 2 hours!
If you'd like to join us for a delightful afternoon soiree and support a most worthy cause, Tickets are just $20pp.  [pre book/pay your ticket in advance and you'll go in the draw for separate prize]
