Mary Meyers, former Metropolitan Opera chorister, and Joe Wray, retired Polk County High School (PCHS) teacher, met with Polk County chorus students who  attended the opera “Il Trovatore”  at Bob Jones University in Greenville, S.C. on March 13. Organized by the Arts in Education program at Tryon Fine Arts Center, the special trip sent area high school chorus students to Greenville to see this professional production of one of Verdi’s classics. This program, originally founded and supported by Jack Wheaton, is made possible by Main Street Financial Group and individual donors.
