HEALTHY SOUNDS
A small group (12 -15) will be
needed to sing at Pontypool Hospital on Wednesday 14th March from 2 –
3pm. We will sing some light music so that the patients can join in . We have
applied for a Healthy Sounds grant which will bring in £200 for Choir Funds.
Thank you to those who sang at the hospital in December, we recently received a
£200 cheque for that session.
AGM
The AGM will be held at 7.00pm
on Thursday 31st May 2012 . We need a new Chair as Gill Morgan will
be standing down from the committee after many years of service to the choir.
New committee members would be very welcome and if you are interested then do
chat to your Section Rep or any
current committee member.
