Singers and bellringers from Sturgis and Whitewood continue a 46-year Christmas tradition when they join in song on Sunday, December 14th at 2:00pm at the Sturgis Community Center Theater. The Annual Community Christmas Concert, a favorite holiday tradition, has been performed consistently since 1979, when it first was held at Grace Lutheran Church.
Area church choirs are now beginning their rehearsals for this special event as they prepare for their individual performances. All choirs blend for the concert’s finale piece which will be directed by Marlene Kotab, choir director at Grace Lutheran Church.
All church choirs or ensembles are welcome to participate in the concert. New choirs are always invited to join and need only to contact Marlene Kotab, concert coordinator, by phone at 605-347-1375 or by email at kotabgmc@rushmore.com by December 1st. Any singer who does not belong to a church choir is still invited to sing with the mass group on the final number. Music is available upon request. One mass choir rehearsal is Wednesday, December 10th at 7:00pm at the theater.
Don’t miss this enjoyable musical holiday concert sponsored by the Sturgis Area Arts Council!
