The Fund Raising Drive for the purchase of new risers that was initiated in late 2018 has come to fruition -- the new risers recently arrived and they are perfect in every way! They are safer, wider, more stable and facilitate easy access to all three levels. With the added railings and their modular construction, the new risers are secure and flexible, and allow for multiple arrangements to suit the event, be it a choral performance, a meeting or simply just for extra seating,
The new riser system will be dedicated in memory of Debbie Eaton during the Village Voices 2019 Spring Concerts on April 5th & 6th at 7:00 p.m., and on April 7th at 3:00 p.m. at the Vistas Ballroom.
Debbie is the late wife of choir member Mike Eaton. She was a long-time resident of Westbrook Village, a beloved friend of the Village Voices, and a very talented artist and interior designer in the NW Valley. We will fondly remember Debbie's contagious smile, her outgoing personality, kind heart, and love for everyone she met.
Tickets for the concerts are available at the Vistas Rec Center Reception Desk starting at 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, March 5, 2019.

Our History
The Westbrook Village Voices Choir Program was formed 25 years ago to give residents and community members, who enjoy singing, an opportunity to continue developing their musical talent. Members enjoy fun and focused rehearsals each week during the season. In addition, exciting opportunities to perform are offered to Village Voices Choir members.
Who's Rehearsing for the Spring Concert?
During the Village Voices first rehearsal on January 9th, we learned that our amazing Men's Quartet is performing in the Spring Concert.
After being on hiatus during the 2018 Winter Concert, the four talented singers, (l-r) Gene Brandwein, Mike Eaton, George Lund and George Hoffman, are diligently practicing a rousing 1950s ditty. All the more reason for everyone to plan on attending the show!
