Dogwood Blossoms
Chorus
Sweet Adelines Int.
Does anyone know where July went? It was just here - and now folks are getting ready for school to start! We're all grateful that the heat has diminished some, along with the humidity, but it looks like it could be back for a short time this week - summer in Ohio!
What a good time we had singing at the Mt. Vernon Music and Arts Festival! We were part of the opening ceremonies on Thursday evening, along with the Danville Marching Band and some local dignitaries. We proudly stood on the stage in our patriotic shirts and sang "God Bless America", "Battle Hymn of the Republic", and "Star Spangled Banner". Thanks to the festival committee for allowing us to be part of the show!
We are continuing to work on the music for our annual show at The Woodward on Sunday afternoon, October 19 - be watching for more information soon. It promises to be a fun show, and will feature some favorite songs from days gone by.
We were so glad to have Peg come to visit us several times! Daisy joined us one night and we hope to see more of her.
We always welcome visitors to our Monday evening rehearsals. We start to congregate about 6:30, hold a short business meeting at 6:45, and then begin to rehearse at 7:00 - come check it out! For those who do not read music (and even those who do!), we will have some learning tracks available - they really help! We meet in the administration building at the Mt. Vernon Developmental Center (the address is in bold type below, along with a map). BTW - if we need to cancel a rehearsal due to weather or any other reason, we'll post that info on our public Facebook page, "Dogwood Blossoms Chorus".
We do more than rehearse in this group - we also share in our friendships! This chorus is a great group of "sisters" - along with "brother" Jeff, our director... Check our Facebook page, "Dogwood Blossoms Chorus", for current announcements or follow us on Instagram.
The chorus welcomes women and girls who love to sing to our rehearsals! We meet on most Monday evenings at 6:30, hold a short business meeting at 6:45, and start rehearsal at 7:00 in the Administration Building at Mt. Vernon Developmental Center, 1250 Vernonview Drive in Mt. Vernon OH.
Meanwhile, the chorus wishes everyone a great summer!!

Welcome!
Dogwood Blossoms Chorusis an extraordinary group of women who gather together in celebration of the art form known as barbershop music - we sing 4-part harmony music, a cappella style, in several genres. We are a chapter of Sweet Adelines International.
We can be heard throughout the year, singing for civic and charitable organizations, private groups, churches, community events, and fundraisers.
