  • UU Choir Rehearsal - Meeting Room

    Thursday, August 6, 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM
    Choir schedule (starting August 8):
    Thursday evenings: 7:00-8:30. Childcare available upon request.
    Sunday mornings: 8:45 am rehearsal for 9:30 am service, 10:45 am rehearsal for 11:30 am service. Childcare always available.

    Choir exercises body, mind, and spirit. Enhances your vocal fluency and keeps your voice young and flexible. Engages deep listening. Improves posture and lung capacity. Calms and focuses the mind (you won't have time for any other worries during rehearsal). Gives you the best seat in the house for the children's moment. And occasionally puts you smack in the middle of a masterpiece!
