Dear ROCA Members,

‘Tis the Season!

Thank you for the beautiful music this month… we will continue to bring joy to others through our music this week and next. Then, it’s time to get together and CELEBRATE!

Please note some additional details below regarding our annual party. Thanks, Cathy for adding this to the blog! Again this year we will gather at the Edgewater Park complex and enjoy some food and fun.

When: Tuesday, December 20th 6:30PM

Where: Edgewater Park Recreation Centre, 3031 Williams Road, Richmond (enter from Williams Rd, last driveway on the right as you head towards the west dyke; follow the driveway over the speed bumps and park in the visitor spaces near the centre complex- you’ll see a fenced pool area and it is quite obvious; OR park on Williams and walk in.)

What to bring:

something yummy to eat and share: either sweet or savoury—please consider what utensils will be needed too… finger food is best. Thanks! (an oven is available)

your favourite beverage to share (please bring your own mug or glass if possible, so we have less waste

if you'd like to participate in the annual Christmas present exchange, please bring a wrapped gift, $10.00 max. value

NOTE: the most popular gifts to steal are those uniquely wrapped or shaped! (gift exchange likely to happen around 7:30pm)

lots of Christmas Cheer! Santa hats and other sillies if you like! (Chorus- please bring red carol binders and weather appropriate attire for caroling!)

We are grateful to our musical leadership… this is a time to thank Brigid, James, Toby, Larissa and Meghan and Cathy! Extra hugs!

We will present small gifts and give a toast to these wonderful people during the party; let us know if you have any performances or songs to share and entertain with!

With holiday spirit,

Laura, Jenn, Doris of the Chorus
