The CWSS will be singing at the Memorial Day Services in Radnor, Ohio, on Monday May 25th. The day will start with a breakfast at the Radnor Congregational Church (United Church of Christ), followed by a parade and the services at the cemetery. There will be an ox roast at the community center. It will be a heart warming day – filled with both fun and inspiration. All WSCO members are invited, and it’s a great opportunity to experience an old-fashioned Memorial Day in a real Welsh community. For more information about CWSS performances, contact Ann (614) 885-8806 or j-gillard(at)sbcglobal(dot)net.
For more information about the singing society and their rehearsals, see the WSCO website http://www.welshsocietyofcentralohio.org and the article on page 16 of this newsletter.
