Looking forward to our rehearsal tomorrow night! Below are several announcements for the week ahead:
Concert Month:

Volunteers Needed:
- Non-chorus Volunteers: Do you have a partner, friend, or teenage child who would like to help us out on the day of the concert? If so, we are in need of the following:

Please let Marsha know if you can help fill these positions
- Chorus Volunteers: For this concert, we will be using risers for our tech rehearsals as well as for our performance. We will need several chorus volunteers to help fold up the risers and store them after our technical rehearsal on Thursday, April 27th and more volunteers to help set up the risers on Sunday, April 30th prior to our 1:30PM call (1PM). So if you are able-bodied and willing to help, please plan to stay a little later or come a little early to help out. Thank you.
Banquet Donations: We will continue to collect donations for catering our Spring Banquet/Listening Party on Monday, May 8th at 6:30PM at the FARM Clubhouse located at 1 Alice Ingram Circle, Chapel Hill, NC 27517. There will be a box on the back table for cash/check donations and instructions for Venmo. Thank you in advance for your contributions.
Tour Update: As part of our initial survey to gauge interest in a Tour of Ireland in August 2024, many of you generously indicated that you would be willing to make a donation toward someone else’s trip to ensure that all members can participate. In order to determine if we have enough funds to commit to the tour by August 2023, we ask that you complete the Pledge Form and return it by May 10, 2022. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
Shout-out: Tomorrow night we will celebrate Shelley Hedtke. Shelley has been a member of Women’s Voices Chorus since 2006 and during her time with us has served on the Board in a number of capacities including Music Chair, President for 6 years, Graphic Arts liaison for 11 years, S2 membership Liaison, and Hostess of Listening Parties. Shelley has led Women’s Voices Chorus through many transitions and we are grateful for your leadership, musicianship, and many years of friendship. Shelley will be relocating to Texas next month to start the next chapter and will not be able to sing with us for our Spring concert. We will miss you and wish you well on your new adventure! Thank you.
