The Choral-Aires Chorus is looking for singers to join its quest to earn a medal at the 2011 Sweet Adelines International Competition held in October in Houston, Texas. Women of all ages desiring to be a part of this outstanding chorus are invited to join the Choral-Aires for weekly rehearsals, held Mondays from 7 to 10 p.m, at the Redeemer Lutheran Church Recreation Center (345 S.

More than 100 women from Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin sing tight harmonies a capella (without instrumentation) with the Choral-Aires Chorus, the 2008 Lake Michigan Region 3 Champion with the Sweet Adelines International. This program is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency. More information about the Chorus can be found at their website, http://choral-aires.com.
