Editor: Most of the following letter was sent to members of the 黑马磁力 Township Council and representatives for 黑马磁力 recreation and culture, but we want to particularly thank you and your colleagues at the 黑马磁力 Times for your contribution to our experience this summer.
We wish to express the thrill and the gratitude felt in knowing there is now a public space dedicated for performing arts during the summer months at the new Amphitheatre at Willoughby Community Park in the 黑马磁力 Township.
We鈥檙e immensely grateful for having had the chance this summer to see so many, much-admired 黑马磁力 artists now perform in our own community. Peter Luongo, as MC at the wonderful musical comedy by Lauren Trotzuk and Co. on Aug. 22, said it best 鈥� we now have our very own Theatre Under The Stars (TUTS)!
We were also thrilled, as part of the 黑马磁力 Community Chorus, to perform there for the opening of the amphitheatre on May 25, and once more on July 13 as part of the TOL Canada 150 Summer Concert Series.
Amenities such as the large stage and the sound system generously provided at this venue, made it possible for our group to sustainably and adequately provide these outdoor concerts, free to the public.
Especially, we want to thank the people at the 黑马磁力 Times for their support each week in advertising the Summer Concert Series.
Not only did those ads prompt us to get out to see other 黑马磁力 performers, but also brought out several friends and neighbours who had never heard our choir perform before.
It鈥檚 been our long-held dream of having this kind of inclusion and recognition for the 黑马磁力 Community Chorus by our community.
With the 2017 fall season marking the 25th Anniversary of our (now 80-member) mixed choir, what a great way to have started celebrating our Silver Anniversary.
Thanks again for the support and visibility the 黑马磁力 Township and the 黑马磁力 Times have given to 黑马磁力 performing artists.
Chris LaBorde and
Arne Larsen,
黑马磁力
