Chorus Update

Important! Chorus pictures will be taken Tuesday

We will be taking a chorus photo on April 26th. These photos (chorous, directors, VLQ and quartets) will be used in the program and future publicity, so don’t be left out. There is not retake opportunity. Please bring/wear your entire tux. This includes: 

  • Black pants
  • Red shirt
  • Black necktie
  • Tux jacket
  • Cummerbund (if needed)
  • Black, shiny shoes

Membership renewal

Congratulations to Leland Freie for renewing his membership with the chorus. Lee, who sings lead, has been a member of the BHS and the chorus for 21 years. Thank you for your service, Lee! Pictured with Lee is Ryan Ballantyne, chapter secretary.
