SPRING CONCERT A GREAT SUCCESS

The Annual Spring Concert was a wonderful success. The Parrsboro Citizens' Choir started the Concert with several well sung pieces and was under the direction of Rob Bentley due to the fact that Dr. Paul Aitken was ill. The King Street Strummers played and sang several selections with a few of Gordon Lightfoots selections. The Elastic Big Band finished the evening with music to get everyone in the mood. Vocalist Janet who has been absent for 12 years was back and delighted the audience. Thank you to everyone who made this concert possible and thank you to the audience for their support.

The Parrsboro Band Associations Annual Plant, Book and Bake Sale

What a wonderful turnout on a gorgeous day and plants poured out the doors of The Hall, destined to bless many, many gardens.

The Parrsboro Band Assoc. wishes to extend a huge thank you to all the volunteers who came and helped the last couple of days, people who baked and gave books to the sale, it is certainly appreciated. To all our our loyal supporters who came to support us today, Thank You. You made this fundraiser really fun. 

The  winner of the Garden Art donated by Jr. Willigar was Jackie Bartlett. Thank you to everyone who bought tickets. 

And last but not least we cannot thank Doreen & Brenda Wheaton enough who literally dug up and  potted most of the plants that we available for this fundraiser.

CREATIVE VOICES FILL THE HALL WITH SONG

It was a wonderful afternoon of song at The Hall when Truro's 'Creative Voices', under the direction of Jackie Chambers-White, entertained an appreciative audience.   The Parrsboro Citizens' Choir joined this wonderful ensemble to fill The Hall with soaring sound. 

MEMBERSHIP APPRECIATION DAY AT THE HALL

What a wonderful afternoon at the Hall where we celebrated our membership and had special afternoon for Ann & Kerwin Davison who have celebrated their 90th birthdays. Ass. chair Lori Linch welcomed everyone on behalf of Chairman David Forbes who was unable to make the afternoon. Nancy Curleigh spoke on the value of our members then spoke on Ann & Kerwins involvement in The Hall and the community. Everyone sang Happy Birthday to them. Jim Chambers played several selections on our Grand Piano during the afternoon.    (with thanks to Patricia for the timely photos.) 

ANOTHER GREAT OPEN MIC

It was our next to last open mic for the season and it turned into an evening filled with great music and laughter.   Special thanks to Andrew for being such a good sport about his 'run in' with a local bear.

HAL BRUCE CHARMS A FULL HOUSE

What can be said about an entertainer of Hal Bruce's stature?   He put on an intimate concert to a full house, engaging every person present with his charm, humour and of course, terrific music.   The whole evening felt like one big happy family party in the kitchen.
