Joan McKinney of Saluda, right, is introduced to Community Chorus President Lee Lindsay at the first rehearsal for the Christmas concert. Greaton Sellers, section leader for the tenors, is assisting in welcoming new and returning singers, 85 of whom assembled during a recent dark and rainy night at Tryon Presbyterian Church. Dr. Mark Schweizer, director, and Pam McNeil at the piano immediately led the group into portions of the β€œSt. Nickolas,” a fun opera by Richard Shephard to be enjoyed by all. All rehearsals are held on Monday evenings 7 - 9 p.m. up to the Christmas concert on Dec. 9 at Polk County High School auditorium. For more information, contact Art Brown at 828-859-5412.
