Tickets are officially on sale for our annual fundraising dinner. SWC is a non-profit organization- this event is our bread and butter for maintaining the choir. All donations are put right back into creating an annual scholarship, paying our pianist/conductor, purchasing sheet music, paying rent to our venues, etc.
We do not expect to get something for nothing which is why we plan to feed you a delicious meal AND entertain you!
