The Choral-Aires Chorus invites community members to Jack’s Silverado Grill (447 Spring Road, Elmhurst) from 12 – 4 p.m., Saturday, November 10, for a “Sand, Surf and Song” Fundraiser Event. This event will raise funds for the Chorus, which—as the Lake Michigan Region 3 Sweet Adelines Champion—will represent the region’s choruses at International competition in Honolulu, Hawaii, November 4 – 9, 2013. Cost for the “Sand, Surf and Song” Fundraiser Event is $20 per person, which includes entry, food and entertainment by the Chorus. A silent auction and 50/50 raffle will round out the day. Seating times of 12, 1:30, and 3 p.m. are available. Contact Alex Bennett at 815-455-7005 or abennett@hcpsil.com for more information, or to purchase tickets.
More than 100 women from Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin sing tight harmonies a cappella (without instrumentation) with the Choral-Aires Chorus, a Sweet Adelines International medaling chorus, and the 2012 Lake Michigan Region 3 Champion. This program is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency. More information about the Chorus can be found at their website, http://choral-aires.com.
