Thank you for your help!
The TCC concerts are beautifully presented because of the many volunteers (singers, friends and family) who commit their time and energy to helping with many tasks. Volunteer for something you feel you can help with this season! Such as…serving on the TCC Board, fundraising, stage preparation and breakdown, and more. Thank you!"
