A Winter Concert ($4467 was raised in this concert - $3467 for Tri-Lakes Cares, and $500.00 was awarded to the scholarship fund of Clara Harker {Brigham Young University})- We were so thrilled to return to in-person concerts this year, and added a livestream option! This years' concert was put together by our co-conductor, Rose Dunphey, and our librarian, Bob Bowker. The performance was a combination of previous years' cantatas and was so much fun to put on. Sadly, this was our last year with Rose; she will be taking her well-earned retirement in Montana with her husband. We have been so blessed to enjoy her talent, wisdom, and spirit for the past several years, and wish her the best (she will always have a place in our group and our hearts)!
