Dine & Shop Around Town is a one week “event,” from June 16 – June 22, to provide much needed funding for the NRHS Chorale trip to London and Paris and at the same time to promote local restaurants and stores who are willing to provide the support necessary for the NRHS Chorale to make this a truly spectacular and memorable performing and travel experience. When customers present the event coupon on our website or simply mention their support for the NRHS Chorale Dine & Shop Around Town event, the businesses will donate 10% of the total of the sale to NRHS Chorale. For a complete list of participating restaurants and shops, visit http://nrhschorale.weebly.com.
The New Rochelle High School Chorale will be representing their school and our community when they travel to London and France this summer to perform at several locations including the Olympic Games in London. This group of 50 talented students will depart for London on August 5th and will be performing at one of the Olympic sites, an ancient church in London and the Cemetery at Omaha Beach in Caen. They then head to Paris on August 11th to perform at Luxembourg Gardens and Sacre Coeur Cathedral. In between performances they will be taking in a great deal of sightseeing to see so many of the historic locations they have been studying in school.
This trip will not only be an opportunity for these students to perform, learn, and have fun. It will be a critical component of preparing them for the increasingly complex world they will experience after graduation. This is a world that demands an understanding of other people and cultures. Travel opportunities such as this will motivate our students, expand their learning opportunities, and help equip them to meet the challenges of a demanding global society.
The NRHS Chorale students have worked extremely hard this year in preparation for this trip and their performances before a global audience. They are proud of their accomplishments and are delighted to have the support of local business owners to help fund this important trip.
