Each scholarship winner participated in her respective high school’s vocal music program for a minimum of two years and plans to participate in a college or junior college vocal music program.
Tri City Sound is affiliated with Sweet Adelines International, a nonprofit organization that offers traditional tunes in four-part barbershop harmony. The chorus is open to all women interested in learning about barbershop-style music, singing, performing, and sisterhood.
Rehearsals are Thursday evenings from 6:45 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Lutheran Church of Our Savior, 4725 S. Bradley Road in Orcutt. For more information about Tri City Sound, visit TriCitySound.org, call 736-1874, or e-mail tricitysound@comcast.net.
