Carolling at Willow Manor (evening session)

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: an earlier one at 2:00pm in the Care Unit (downstairs) and this  one, on the main floor in the Independent Living area. 
Song books will be provided; you don’t need to bring binders or anything. 
Carpooling is recommended as street parking is very limited. Festive Christmas attire would be great!
We’ll gather in the main lobby for 6:45 so we can mask up and have our vaccine passports etc. checked, then all head in together. There will be a number of other singers joining us (mostly from Collage) so it promises to be a good time.

PLEASE NOTE:YOU MUST BE DOUBLE-VACCINATED AND PRESENT YOUR ID AND VACCINATION PASSPORT.
