Last week, 40 children and youth participated in St. Peter’s K-12 Chorister Camp! Each day began by helping to lead Morning Prayer, followed by activities covering team building, choir rehearsal, snack, score reading, choral blend, and the basics of Anglican worship.
On Wednesday, two inflatable water slides were set up as a fun activity in the middle of the week!
Chorister Camp’s purpose was to prepare the choristers for a year of leading Evensong by getting a head start on learning music, getting to know each other, working on their choral sound, and ultimately learning what it is that we do functionally in a Service of Evensong that makes it so unique.
The week concluded in a Service of Evensong led by the choristers and attended by parents, grandparents, friends, and other family.
This fall, the choristers will be leading Evensong at St. Peter’s Cathedral once a month on the following dates:
September 19 – Middle & High School Choristers
October 17 – All Choristers
November 21 – Middle & High School Choristers
December 19 – All Choristers
Choristers rehearse on Wednesdays beginning September 8. If your child is interested in joining choristers, contact Debbie Garven!
