Great Lakes Harmony Region #17 - COVID PROTOCOLS LIFTED
The well-being of Sweet Adelines members and attendees is a top priority as we have begun returning to in-person events. While it's impossible to eliminate all risks related to COVID-19, it is important to be aware of the possibilities of transmissions.
As of March 1, 2023, Great Lakes Harmony Region 17 is lifting all protocols regarding to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, please be aware of the following guidances to help prevent and spread infections:
Recently the RMT - sadly and with great reluctance - accepted the resignation of our wonderfully talented Marketing Coordinator, Stephanie Doerner. We thank her for all the work she has done for us and wish her all the best in her future endeavors.
We have been working diligently behind the scenes and are pleased to announce that Madeline Anderson-Balmer, a member of the Buffalo Gateway Chorus, has accepted the position and is joining the RMT immediately.
Sweet Adelines held the first International Education Symposium in several years and Region 17 was well-represented. We had fun, learned a lot, and tried not to melt in the scorching temps!
