Hello Everyone
So, we’ve got 4 rehearsals under our belts and you’re sounding good. Most importantly – you’ve been having fun! Many of you are now getting to know your neighbours in your voice section and we encourage you to wander around at break-time in order to meet everyone. We plan on organizing some sort of social outside of rehearsal time at a yet-to-be-decided venue. Coffee at a Tim’s somewhere? Pot-luck in a park (weather permitting)? Pizza at a BP sometime?
Send an email to hamiltonsings@gmail.com with your great social idea or speak up at rehearsal break. Getting to Know You is a great song too.

Thanks to those of you who have either paid the term fees in full or continue to do so on a per session basis. Your generous support permits us to offer PWYC terms to those in our community unable to make a financial contribution. We can also benefit from a contribution of your time as a board, committee, and/or volunteer member. Your skill set is in need here – along with your sweet voice.
Salut
