Celebrate 20 years of Vashon Chorale at Strawferry Festival

Please come by the Chorale's booth at Strawberry Festival (July 18 & 19) to see our great new permanent HUGE vinyl poster featuring photography from the last concert and many pictures from our 20 years of making music on Vashon Island. Craig Hanson has been hard at work designing this for us.

We'll be selling raffle tickets at the booth, so get your $1 bills ready to spend. You can select the ticket receptacle for which item(s) you would like to win. The choices are tickets for performances by Vashon Opera, Vashon Youth Chorus, Vashon Chamber Orchestra, Vashon High School, Cascadian Chorale (under the artistic direction of Gary Cannon) and our own Chorale's Dec. concert, plus a quilt made from music print fabrics by Chorale President Jo Ann Bardeen. (see attached photo)

If you can't come to the festival but want to purchase tickets to help with the fund-raising efforts, send a check to V.I. Chorale, P.O. Box 2325. Indicate for which items you want each $1 chance to be allocated. Include your phone number and we will fill out your tickets and deposit them according to your wishes. Winning tickets will be drawn at the close of the festival on Sunday, July 19. If you mail in a donation for tickets, it must be received in our P.O. Box by Saturday, July 18. Thanks!

We do have some volunteer slots to fill for staffing of our festival booth plus some other duties to do that will soon be assigned to us by the chamber of commerce. If we don't already have your name as a possible volunteer and you want to help, please let Jo Ann Bardeen know.
