Founder and director, Stephanie H.

Stephanie emphasizes that this is a community choir and invites anyone (18 years and older) in and around Athens County to join. Registration forms are available on the Athens County Community Singers’ Facebook group page or on the Programs and Consultation page at https://centralohiomusictherapy.com/.

Choir members have said that this group means a great deal to them and is a wonderful social outlet where they interact with their friends. The choir plans to perform at the ACBDD Disability Awareness Festival at the Athens Community Center, the Senior Safety and Preparedness Day at the Athens County Fairgrounds, as well as Patriotic Concerts and Sing-Alongs at various locations in the community and surrounding area.
