All the music classes and the choir have been busy getting ready for the Christmas program, scheduled for Thursday December 10.  This year’s program will feature recorders, hand chimes, boomwhackers, lots of singing, and the Nativity scene.   Be ready for a little audience participation, as well.  Hope to see lots of friends and family members there.
