Exeter singer to perform in Spring Sing EXETER - In her 10th year of singing, 15 -year-old Meaghan Straw will perform as part of the 90 -member St. Marys Children's Choir in a Spring Sing sponsored by Partners in Community Living on March 31 at Exeter United Church. With most choir participants from the St. Marys, Stratford, Mitchell, Thomdale and London area, Meaghan is the only member from Huron County. She became interested in singing b,y itis tp i:e5 bIgthers,, is, Stephen and Jeremy, for five years while they performed in the Strat- ford Boy Choir. In her first year with the choir, which is for children aged seven to 16, Meaghan began as a Brio, rep- resenting the junior division, then graduated to the Presto senior sec- tion. Within the choir, she also takes part in specialty singing groups. After singing alto for one year, she became a soprano for a few years before returning to alto in her fifth year. Although she admitted she used to enjoy singing most, she now funds the social aspect of being a choir member very rewarding. "I think the best for Meaghan...is meeting the 'children," said her mother, Rosemary. Lately Meaghan practices with the choir at St. Marys Central School three nights a week and par- ticipates in a joint practice with the Brios once a month. "That's just as bad as being a hockey mom," said Rosemary. The choir, which was founded in 1981, won first place at the pro- vincial level of the Canadian Im- perial Bank of Commerce Music Competition for the fifth con- secutive year in 1995. The group also released its first CD recording in December titled, Sing for Joy!, a collection of folk, choral and sea- sonal songs. "We sing a lot of music by Ca- ;nadians," said Meaghan. "I don't • think I have a favorite piece. It's al- ways changing." As well as attending music camp every September, Meaghan travels to take part in international choir festivals. Two years ago she went on a choir tour to Atlanta, Georgia. . In conjunction with The Lung Association, the group is holding an auction named We Breathe, therefore We Sing, on April 26 at Knox Presbyterian Church in Strat- ford. As well as performing annual spring performances, the choristers sing in Christmas concerts. "You get a lot out .of it," said Meaghan. "It's fun.
