The Editor,
On Jan.16, a number of choirs from Richmonds vibrant choral community joined together for the 5th annual Richmond Sings at Fraserview MB Church.
The proceeds of this fundraiser will be donated to the annual Dream Auction and the many charities it represents, especially to support initiatives dealing with child poverty in Richmond.
We were delighted to have Sally Huston on hand to make an impassioned plea that no child in Richmond should go hungry. Richmond Sings is hosted by the Richmond Orchestra and Chorus Association and is organized under the watchful eye of their choral conductor, Brigid Coult.
We would like to thank all of the choirs who attended and sang such a wonderful and varied program. Wed also like to thank all of the people who came out in support of this event in spite of the threat of snow and the chilly weather.
Together we raised over $2,000 for this worthwhile cause and are already planning the 6th annual Richmond Sings next year.
See you there.
Paul Dufour
