Directed by Lorilee Bajema, this sing-for-fun group includes music education, access to instruments, and vocal technique, performance, and etiquette. “They learn a lot and we have fun doing it,” Bajema said.
The group meets locally on Mondays from 4 to 5 p.m. to practice uplifting music with a focus on joyful singing.
The program culminates in a combined performance with the Canyon Lake Choraleers twice a year on the main stage at the Canyon Lake Lodge, giving these young singers the opportunity to showcase their talents in front of a live audience.
