ECC Sings at the Memorial Day and Clock Tower Dedication 2008

The Civic Chorus recently participated in the Memorial Day and Clock Tower Dedication held at the Uinta County Courthouse.  The ceremony was originally scheduled to take place outside in the plaza near the clock tower.  They even had risers set up for us.  But weather forced us inside, and we ended up spending a very long time sitting on the floor in the balcony.  I found myself preoccupied with an ant who was enjoying the warm, dry indoor climate as well.  I teased him for quite a while, and I'm not sure he ever made it to where he was originally headed.

It was a pretty neat thing to be involved in this community memorial event.  Even though our singing accommodations were not what we expected, it went pretty well and the organizers really appreciated our participation.  These are the songs we sang:
  • The Star-Spangled Banner
  • Salute to the Armed Forces
  • God Bless America
