        Sherrie's Scherzo
     Thank you to everyone who is able to join us this Sunday at First Baptist Church as we sing in exchange for our concert venue. It's an exchange that we very much enjoy and we sincerely appreciate First Baptist Church helping us reduce our expenses.
 
       We are still seeking folks to step forward with an interest in helping VOICES fill the coming vacancies on our Steering Committee. Please know that it is a requirement of all ACI choruses that each chorus has a functioning steering committee with officers. Dig deep folks; we need your help.           We're happy to just chat without commitment if the "Unknown" is what's holding you back. We'll walk you through the process and be there to answer your questions. Thanks again.
