A big thank you to all who came to our show, "Let's Go to the Movies." I want to thank Joe Ashby for his narration and also recognize the Chorale Board for all of their work in producing our concerts. I also want to recognize the other clubs that supported our efforts. Members from the Dance Club and the Woodchucks played essential roles. Most importantly, I want to commend the Chorale on their dedication to the rehearsal process and all that they did individually to make the event a success. Now, with only a few days before we reach the warmest part of the year, it's time to start talking about our Local Artist Concert coming up on Aug. 10. We will be featuring Patricia Jewel and she will be accompanied by the legendary, Elan McMahon. Mark your calendars. Patricia recently starred in a cabaret show at Moonlight's Club M and we are very lucky to have her come and entertain us.
