To quote from their website:
Our daytime concerts feature classic hits from every style. We sing famous, favourite songs and we present the concerts in a fun, friendly informal way.
If you are interested in travelling with them, please contact Mary Schmack mdsmck27@gmail.com
Men's Discussion Group - one of our members is currently leading a Men's discussion group. He has plenty of material available for discussion.
