New Community Centre in Myddleton Rd, lots going on!...

Bowes Park Community Choir Blasts Off

On the night of the 10th March I counted up 10 people I was pretty sure would turn up for our open evening. Less than that would mean there was no call for a Community Choir. We had five by 7.0 o’clock and by half past seven 50 voices were echoing our Choirmaster Sarah Jewell in the large Hall of St Michaels Church. What fun we had. We sang tentatively at first but then were producing some really big sounds. At tea break people expressed their delight that a Choir was starting up and eagerly filled in the Questionnaires which tell us they will return for more next week. 

If you wish to join in, or merely are curious and want to watch, please just come along to St Michael’s Church Hall on Bounds Green Road at 7 o’clock on Thursday evening. The first session is free for everyone so you can get a feeling if this is the sort of thing you would enjoy.

EVERYONE WELCOME
