This isn’t an official Silver Chord concert but it’s a chance to get out and sing some Christmas carols and bring some joy to a group of seniors. There are two sessions: this one at 2:00pm in the Care Unit (downstairs) and a second one upstairs in the Independent Living area. You don’t need to come to both sessions, although you’d be welcome at both!
Song books will be provided; you don’t need to bring binders or anything. 
We’ll gather in the main lobby for 1:30 so we can mask up and have our vaccine passports etc. checked, then all head down together.

Carpooling is recommended as street parking is very limited. 

Festive Christmas attire would be great!
PLEASE NOTE:YOU MUST BE DOUBLE-VACCINATED AND PRESENT YOUR ID AND VACCINATION PASSPORT.
