Chorus is re-opening in-person April 7

After more than 2 years of COVID closure, we are (almost) ready to re-open. The decision to prepare for reopening was made in early January – (Eazy Peezy) - Book the Hall - transfer the Zoom program to Real Time (Oops), tell the Chorus (Who?). And, get going ! Three months later, it’s April 7. A new world is still emerging out there. President, Board, members and some outsiders, have covered a lot of territory and are all eager to see us re-open & succeed.   Please join us if you are comfortable doing so. If not, understood without question.    

 It’s been a long long time”            Recapture something of your “previous life”

Yes, it has been a long time – 2 years since we last sang together or sang at all. Recently, I recorded a couple of my Zoom session songs. Knew it was not good – Fact: Not even close.          So it will be some daily practice for the next 2 weeks for me . Try it, you will like it too.

WOW ! - CHARLIE METZGER – is out front

Charlie is our new Interim Music Director at FCC. How good is that? Re-opening reality was, we do not have Music Director. Danny, Mike and Heather not available in the immediate future for health & personal reasons. So we did a search and Charlie was the choice and available. It’s going to be A GOOD TIME, not A LONG TIME!!  WE will have the opportunity to make the most of Charlie’s talents and experience to help us internally in musical & chorus development. Externally, we will demonstrate FCC is back & is serious about being back.    

FCC cares about Health and Safety Protocols.

The majority of our members and families are in the very high risk “age” category and must be protected. Literally, in recently days, PHO safety protocols have been relaxed or dropped. The effects of these decisions are not yet known. FCC have mandated the following Health & Safety Protocols, April 7 to 31 that exceed PHO guidelines. Mandates will be re-assessed April 30.
