Chordaires Chorus of Sun Lakes is thrilled to be starting the new season with their director Marc Gaston and a new board. Ginger Henry, president, will be leading the Chordaires this year with the help of Donna Commo, vice president; Janet Lewis, treasurer; and Kay Tymn, secretary.

Thursday, October 3, is the first practice in the Mirror Room at SLCC, from 1:00 to 3:30 p.m. This will be the start of many rehearsals for their annual free Christmas Concert on Sunday, December 8, from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. at SLCC, and their annual Spring Show on Saturday, March 28, 2020, at CWPV.

Women who would like to join for all or part of the year, or just see what the Chordaires are all about and learn more about Barbershop-style singing, are encouraged to call Rita Brown at 480-802-2336. Or come to one of the many Open Houses listed below to speak to a Chordaires representative:
