DATES FOR YOUR DIARY
Monday 11 December 2023: AGM + Social
The AGM on 11 December is when we look back on the past year and can also share any ideas about future choir activities. Immediately after the AGM our CCS Christmas Social is a chance to chat informally and maybe get to know those other members we only usually see from the other side of the rehearsal room. Events will include a fun quiz (thanks Julian and Les), some suitably festive refreshments (non-alcoholic drinks and nibbles) and just a little bit of singing – including a quick burst of the Hallelujah Chorus to get us in the mood for next term's 'Messiah'. Please do come and support both events – and to have an idea of numbers please tick the relevant box in the register to say you'll be there.
Saturday 24 February 2024: Come & Sing Messiah 10am - 4pm (flyer attached)
