Here are some stories from our past performances and events.
What a fine looking bunch of performers at our December 16, 2018 Christmas Show with the Royal City Ukulele Ensemble, Holy Rosary School Choir, Bakers Dozen, P.A.G.E.4 Quartet and Maggie Wittich. Thank you to all our supporters. You can’t begin to imagine how gratifying it is to see you at our shows!
The Royal City Ambassadors and The Overtones sang to a couple dozen lucky recipients. Here are a few shots from the event.
Join us at Guelph’s culture days as we ring to the rafters at Basilica of Our Lady. We will be there just after lunch on Sunday, Sept. 31. Click the photo for more info.
What fun we had in Brantford as we joined the Kitchener and Simcoe chapters for our annual get together. Brantford’s Harmony Square is a neat place.
Will there ever be good weather on a Tuesday night this year? Thanks to all who came out and enjoyed learning new songs and tags.
Thanks to all who enjoyed or live performance at Harcourt Church. Who knew we would have so much fun with the Royal City Ukulele Ensemble! The chords were ringing all night for a well-packed (and warm on the inside) audience. Thanks to MC Tom Watson for demonstrating the incredible musical capabilities of a Marinka. In all, we raised over $2000 in support of Chalmers Community Service Centre and a couple grocery carts to boot!
ROYAL CITY AMBASSADORS barbershoppers Will Polak and Howard Simpson present – on behalf of the Harmonize For Speech Fund – a cheque in the amount of $2000 to Meghan Austin – Speech Language Pathologist with WEE TALK – Wellington Dufferin Guelph Public Health. WEE talk provides professional services to preschool children from birth to age five. Barbershoppers across Ontario provide financial support to the Harmonize For Speech Fund.
Wow! we survived another busy Christmas season. Thanks to all our supporters at our seasonal shows: St Josephs, Holy Rosary, Q-Ball, Guelph Lake Commons, City of Guelph’s Museum, etc.! The Baker’s Dozen has some too, including at Marden and the undisclosed location in the photo below:
What a way to start the week! About a dozen of us were able to be at John F. Ross CVI by 8:30 AM on Music Monday morning to experience Yonge Guns in action with the students. They sang with and for the excellent Ross choir and then conducted a packed workshop for students who were totally engaged in the process. The guys did a wonderful job of explaining the importance of music in their lives, demonstrating their talents, explaining Barber Shop and teaching a tag. So, a big THANK YOU to Yonge Guns and to teacher Dorothy Vreeswyk-Kidd who organized the event.
At Basilica of our Lady.
