Happy end of year to our COS Chamber Singers!
We celebrated with a get-together at Prof. Farris’s home and had a lovely time relaxing (those of us that weren’t doing teoria poolside, anyway). We also caught a rare short-sleeve Sorber sighting, ate half our weight in Amigos taquitos, and became better acquainted with Lauren’s pet chickens. What a great party!
We are so grateful for all of the beautiful memories we have made this year, and for all of the support from our friends, family, and community. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!
To our graduating singers, we love and will miss you and can’t wait to cheer you on in your upcoming adventures! 🎶
Great job on a fantastic 2025-2026 school year everyone, and happy summer! 🎉☀️
