Important Reminders
Rehearsals
Please arrive by 6:50 pm so that we can all start together promptly at 7:00pm. Rehearsals are at Holy Cross Japanese Anglican Church, 4580 Walden (a short block east of Main and 30th).
If you are on Facebook, join the High Spirits Choir group, and make friends with your fellow singers.
And/or, join the Choir Yahoo Group (created by Janine Root) for all choir members and alumni of High Spirits, Simple Gifts and Afternoon Delight choirs. A great place to post non-choir related activities, sales, self-promo, good causes, your web links and G-rated photos.
