Dogwood Blossoms


Chorus


Sweet Adelines Int.

 

     Our show on the Oct. 19th was so much fun - lots of great comments from the audience, which makes us feel so good!! THANK YOU to all who came to The Woodward to see it - we hope you had a great time!! And a huge thank you to The Woodward - you are all awesome and we so enjoy this great facility and staff!!! (We'll have some photos to post soon...) We had our "afterglow" dinner there too - delicious! Another huge THANK YOU to Blue Phoenix quartet from northern Ohio who were our guests on the show - they made beautiful harmony and we all enjoyed hearing them perform.

      As a side note (we are so excited about this news!), those who attended our show may have heard that Sammi, our show chair, was expecting twins... those 2 little fellows arrived on Oct. 31. Congratulations to Sammi and her family! (You can imagine that we can't wait to see/hold/spoil these little bundles of joy!)


     We took our show on the road on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 26, to New Guilford in Coshocton County. About 1/2 of the chorus participated in singing many of our show numbers plus a couple more songs. We invited the audience to sing with us as we showed off the different voice parts in a rendition of "When the Saints Go Marching In". A BIG thank you to New Guilford UMC for hosting the event - we had a great time (and the refreshments were AWESOME!).


     And now, as promised, we are moving on to the next busy time of year - Holiday Chorus! We invite any women and girls who like to sing to come and participate as we learn (or brush up!) Christmas and holiday songs in preparation for singing at seasonal events around our area - we already have one scheduled and will surely have some more lined up very soon (call us to schedule at our chorus number, (740) 324-5229). This is a good opportunity to meet our chorus members and see what our Sweet Adelines chapter is all about - with no dues, just some fun! Even though we started this on Oct. 27, it's not too late - we'll be there on Monday evenings at 7:00 at the Mt. Vernon Developmental Center at 1250 Vernonview Dr., in the Administration building, in the Great Hall. Come have some fun singing with us!!!


     Keep in mind that we always welcome guests to our Monday evening rehearsals, even when it's not Holiday Chorus! We start to congregate about 6:30, hold a short business meeting at 6:45, and then begin to rehearse at 7:00 - come check it out! For those who do not read music (and even those who do!), we will have some learning tracks available - they really help! We meet in the administration building at the Mt. Vernon Developmental Center (the address is in bold type below, along with a map). BTW - if we need to cancel a rehearsal due to weather or any other reason, we'll post that info on our public Facebook page, "Dogwood Blossoms Chorus".


     We're thinking forward to 2026 when our country celebrates its 250th birthday - we even bought some new costume items to enhance any patriotic performances. Keep us in mind - we'd love to perform the national anthem or other songs at local events.

 

     Also - we do more than rehearse in this group - we also share in our friendships! This chorus is a great group of "sisters" who come to sing and become friends. Check our Facebook page, "Dogwood Blossoms Chorus", for current announcements or follow us on Instagram.

      The chorus welcomes women and girls who love to sing to our rehearsals! We meet on most Monday evenings at 6:30, hold a short business meeting at 6:45, and start rehearsal at 7:00 in the Administration Building at Mt. Vernon Developmental Center, 1250 Vernonview Drive in Mt. Vernon OH. On the second and fourth Mondays, we meet at 6:00 for some informal singing too - it's a great time to try a different part and music...

    

Meanwhile, the chorus wishes everyone a great fall season!!
