Chorale Tour 2026 to Anaheim
A Pirate Adventure! 🏴‍☠️

Thursday morning we boarded a charter bus and headed to Fullerton College where we got to workshop our pieces with the incredible John Tebay. He had such a way of inspiring and encouraging us. We loved working with him! He was extremely complimentary and was so kind and great with us.
Afterwards we went to the Pirate Dinner Adventure! So fun and silly and a great way to spend the evening!

Friday we woke up and went to our Forum Festival. It was wonderful to watch other choirs perform and support other schools. We especially loved cheering on Mountain Ridge and Scottsdale Prep from AZ! Chorale performed about 11 with Encore soon after. Both groups sang with passion and had taken the notes from Mr Tebay and responded so well and so quickly. They each gave memorable performances and impressed the judges a lot, earning GOLD!!! 🏆Gianna and Derek won individual awards as well for outstanding musicianship!
From there we went to the beach for some dry beach fun! Volleyball, walking the pier, frisbee…being together in perfect weather was the best part of all! ☀️🏖️ Fullerton College happened to be performing Pirates of Penzance this weekend, so thanks to Boosters, we were able to go see this incredible show! 🏴‍☠️

Saturday we woke up early and went to sing at Disneyland for their Imagination Campus choir experience. We got to work with Disney recording artist and performer Terron Brooks on Moana and Encanto music and had the best time! We then had 12 hours in Disneyland to have fun! We loaded the bus at 11:45pm for an overnight drive back to school.
What a wonderful trip! Huge thanks to Project Exploration for designing our trip! And thanks to our parents and Boosters for helping us get here through fundraising efforts, our amazing pianist Erin Blake, incredible colleague Jennifer Pearce and chaperones extraordinaire: Marvin Pearce, Matt Clausen, Katie Burleson, and Amy Fernandez.
