After a few months hiatus the Headliners Chorus are very happy to announce that we are back performing for the Community.  We spent the time welcoming 10 new ladies to the chorus and learning new repertoire and Director, Cath Gordon, is extremely happy with the results.
 
We recently sang at the Ballina RSL Anzac Day Dawn Service and again at the Cenotaph for the Day Service and it was a great honour for us all to be part of this. We also sang at the Lighthouse Club in the Richmond Room and were delighted to be invited back to sing later in the year.
 
Recently the chorus hit a milestone and celebrated its 20th Anniversary as a chartered SAI (Sweet Adelines International) chorus. To mark the occasion one of our ladies took on the task of making a book to capture the memories and the journey of the chorus to its present state. The book launch was a celebration for past and present members, and we were delighted when our Mayor, Sharon Cadwallader, joined us for champagne at the RSL for the book launch.
 
Julia Murphy has done a wonderful job and managed to capture the essence of the chorus from its inauguration to the present with beautiful photos and snippets which have been collated and remind us all of the wonderful experiences we have shared over the years. It has already sold out its first edition and been reordered. Go Julia!!!!!

At an open rehearsal in May we were visited by the students of St Josephs Primary School Alstonville and they joined us in our warm ups and in singing “A Million Dreams”, a song both chorus and choir were learning and it was an experience which gave great delight to all concerned.  

Our own concert on 14th September in the Ballina RSL will be a bobby dazzler and we are excited to be once again putting on a BIG show for the community. It will be our first one since COVID so save the date.
