The Heritage Singers will be hosting their annual Christmas Concert on Dec. 8, just one of the two formal concerts the local choir holds each year.
Director Brenda Johnson promises the audience will enjoy a lovely evening out at the Central Lutheran Church, as the group makes their way through a program of Christmas songs and carols.
The concert is separated into three sections, each one divided by a time where the audience is invited to join in the music.
“The audience is going to have a chance to participate singing some good old old fashioned Christmas songs as well as carols,” said Johnson.
Admission to the concert, which begins at 2:30 p.m., is $10 at the door. The funds raised are used to purchase the music that the Heritage Singers perform each year. Refreshments will follow the show, and a time to mingle.
The Heritage Singers began about 10 years ago, as an all-female continuation of the Sons and Daughters of the Pioneers. The group hosts a concert at Christmastime and another in the spring, alongside the private performances they do at various seniors homes in the city and at the upcoming Rotary Carol Festival.
Currently, about 20 active members attend practice, and Johnson is always welcoming more voices.
“If anybody likes to sing and would like to join the choir, I'd be happy to speak with them,” said Johnson.
The group currently practices on Tuesday mornings, at the First Free Methodist Church.
Brenda Johnson can be contacted at 1 (306) 631-8095, or interested potential members can catch up with her at the Christmas Concert.
