CHERRY HILL SINGERS

Cherry Hill Singers is a non-auditioned choir welcoming everyone age 16 and older. The group is designed to be a starting point for those who have always wanted to sing in a choir. The group can also be a refresher course for those who have been away from a choir but would like to re-build their skills. The environment is fun and nurturing. Cherry Hill Singers participate in two main performances throughout the year. One during the Christmas season, the other in early spring. Members may also participate in our annual Memorial Day Concert. The group meets on Monday evenings from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM. If you are interested in being part of Cherry Hill Singers, please fill out the contact form below.

A plan has been developed for a return to rehearsals. Unfortunately, it is not a return to NORMAL. However, if all of us observe these guidelines, we can weather the pandemic until such time we CAN RETURN TO NORMAL.

• ALL SINGERS MUST WEAR MASKS. This is far from an ideal scenario but we have no other choice. We will offer some ideas for making singing with a mask more palatable.
• ALL SINGERS MUST SOCIALLY DISTANCE IN REHEARSAL. Minimum distance between singers will be THREE FEET. Ideally, and depending upon room availability, we should work to maintain SIX FEET while singing.
• REHEARSAL PERIODS WILL BE SHORTER AND MAY REQUIRE A MOVE TO A SECOND ROOM. BeckRidge Chorale will start at 7:15 PM, change rooms at approximately 7:45 PM and rehearse until 8:30 or 8:45 PM. The Board of Directors authorized the purchase of two air purifiers certified for Covid. We will continually monitor the air quality during rehearsals.
• MEMBERS WILL BE REQUIRED TO SIGN A LIABILITY WAIVER. We are strongly encouraging everyone to be/get vaccinated. We want to protect and make everyone feel safe. At the same time, we know some feel vaccination status is a personal matter. For this reason, the waiver requests vaccinations but does not require proof. The waiver is intended to recognize the risks associated with Covid-19, limit liability on the part of the organization, and lay out guidelines for all of us to return to as safe an environment as possible.
• HYBRID REHEARSALS. We are planning to have voiced rehearsal tracks available for everyone. At the same time, We are  willing to work online with three or more singers from an ensemble to learn music.
