GUELPH STORM CHOIR FRI OCT 28th From Mrs. McCabe and Mme Rafalowski

What an awesome choir and a fantastic group of kids! This Friday we will sing ‘Oh Canada’ at the Sleeman Center as the Guelph Storm take on Mississauga, on Friday, October 28th, 2022 at 7:30pm. With every paid ticket, $4 goes back to the school! Thank you for your patience waiting on tickets. With such a large group of singers and community coming it has taken time to finalize the seating. Tickets will come home later today along with a note holding the information below.
