Alumnae Singers! LOVE TO SING? ARE YOU AN ACCOMPANIST/PIANIST?
This is your chance to get together with other alums who share your passions for singing. We are inviting alums of all ages to join. The Alumnae Singers is a program of the Alumnae Association and we would like this group to be alumnae led. This is a great way for those who loved singing while at Mercy to come together. We are also looking for a volunteer pianist who can accompany the group.
To start, we thought it would be fun to sing at Christmas at Kohl on November 29, 2017. This event is sponsored by the Alumnae Association and guests always love to hear Christmas carols! The Alumnae Singers had their debut last spring by joining in the Chorale Spring Concert as pictured here. Next year, we hope to be able to sing at the Alumnae Homecoming Mass in September 2018.

We will have two practices prior to November 29, 2017 and then practices in the spring to get ready for next fall. If you are interested, please email Mary Lund at mlund@mercyhsb.com
