Piccolo Singing, Saturday 27 May 2017

• Delynne reported that Tom & Sharon will attend. All regular members should plan to supply multiple covered dishes for dinner on the grounds.
• Stephen reported that the Parish Hall at the Episcopal Cathedral of St. Luke and St. Paul on Coming Street will be available for our singing in May. The kitchen is better than that of Gage Hall, the parking is better, and we can use paper plates :).
• We need a recording for promotional purposes. Stephen will make one this afternoon.

Daniel Island Historical Society, Tuesday 16 May 2017

• Stephen has designed a flyer.
• We need four voices – Stephen, Rob, Darlene, and Suzanne (80% sure)
