Lancer Singers & The Clipper City Chordsmen
The Lancer Singers will be part of the Clipper City Chordsmen fundraiser for Music Education on Saturday, September 20th. The concert begins at 1:00pm at the Franciscan Center for Music Education and Performance. All money raised will be shared with every high school music program in Manitowoc County. Last year the Chordsmen raised over $7,000 to assist music education. Their goal this year is to raise $10,000. “Teach the World to Sing!” is a free event with a good will offering, raffle baskets, and a $2,500 matching grant. Come hear our MLHS Lancer Singers, enjoy some barbershop music by the Clipper City Chordsmen and help raise funds for music education in our Lakeshore communities.
