Well, yes! Noteworthy Community Choir has an inter-generational choir (Expressions) that meets Monday evenings from 7:15 - 9:15 p.m.
"We have singers ages 14 through 70+ and have had a wonderful time serving our communities through song," says Vicki Mills of Ada, director.
"New singers are welcome, and the audition is short and sweet, consisting of singing 30 seconds of your favorite song, and running a few exercises to determine your range and musicianship skills."
