PLEASE NOTE – ITS GOING TO BE VERY WARM IN THE AFTERNOON. WE WILL GATHER AT 6PM INSTEAD. WATCH THIS SPACE AND CHECK YOUR EMAIL.

It’s Silver Chord’s annual choir picnic again! Join us at Settlers Park with a picnic lunch, a beverage and a lawn chair or blanket. Bring your Silver Chord music, preferably at least your choir binder from the Spring 2025 season. Stephanie will have her keyboard, of course, and Nigel will have his guitar, so there’ll be no shortage of tunes! Many of you have instruments – bring them along too.

Stephanie will also have a bunch of singalong books so we can sing something other than our regular choir repertoire.

Settlers Park is where some of you have come to hear Collage (Stephanie’s group) practice on Wednesday evenings. It’s at 1250 Confederation Drive. See the map for directions. There’s lots of parking, but we’ll have carpooling set up from the Legion parking lot near the Gathering Place.
