HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1987-01-21, Page 20Page 20—CLINTON NEWS -RECORD; WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 21, 1987 CAC prepares for act II CLINTON - TFLe second performance in the Clinton Arts Committee's Entertain- ment Series is nearly upon us. The Seaforth Harmony Kings and Harmony Hi-lites are to Ire featured. This group of enthusiastic peo- ple come from all walks of life, but have two things in common: they come from the Seaforth area, and they love to sing, Barber- shop Harmony. Fe% have formal musical training. ' The men's group, cdlittd the Harmony Kings, began singing together in 1983, and evolved from an initial membership of about 10 singers. The ladies' group, the Hi- lites, began singjlg together in 1985. Many of the ladies are wives of the men in the 'Kings'. ' The 'Kings' are members of an Interna- ' tional Society, called:. "Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartet Singing in America", or SPEBSQSA. There are two registered quartets within the 'Kings' group. The Hi- lites also have a registered quartet, that won the right to compete in an International competition in St. John, New Brunswick in November 1986. The two groups perform about 15 tinges per year, and perform together about three times per year. Clinton is fortunate to be able to hear both groups on February 7. The proceeds from the King's and Hi-lites' performances are donated to the Institute for Logopedics, an organization which helps children who have hearing and speech impediments. The director of the Men's group is Barry Mahon. Mr. Mahon began singing Barber- shop harmony with a group in Oakville and then moved to this area. He th'r7i became a member of the Stratford group, which has since dissolved. He became a member of a quartet in the Seaforth area, and in 1985, started the Seaforth Harmony Kings group with about 10 other interested singers. The Hi-lites' director, Margaret Whit- more, is the Choir Director for Northside United Church in Seaforth and has extensive musical training behind her. The Seaforth Harmony Kings and Har- mony Hi-lites will begin their performance at 7:59 p.m. ( you can set your watch by it), so be sure to be prompt. There are two door prizes to be given away, to add tothis already exciting evening. The doors of the Clinton Town Hall will open at 7:30 p.m. Refreshments will be available. The Amateur Theatre group, called the Clinton Community Players, who recently put on the hilarious performance of ("Lover's Leap", report a profit of $400, which will be added to funds being saved towards stage lighting for the town hall auditorium. The CAC has been busy programing next year's subscription series. There will be four performances featured in the Adult Series and there will also be a Children's Series, with three performances. The book- ing of these performers is taking place presently, and more specific information will be available shortly. A brochure outlin- ing the adult's and children's series as well as ticket vouchers will be available at the final performance of this year's series. The gala evening which had been original- ly planned for the fall of 1986 to raise money for stage lighting has been postponed until further notice. Further information about the CAC's ac- tivities can be obtained through the town hall, at 482-3997. 1 :.:iras+im The Sloman School Car Park now has a new attraction in the old Clinton Public School bell tower. The tower was donated to the park by the VanDammes who used the structure as a gazebo. It was moved by Clinton Public Works, Clinton Public Utilities Commission and Bluewater Cable employees. Here Clinton's Public Works Superintendent, Harold Gibbings, takes a closer look.
