Our motto is ‘Laugh, Sing, Belong’ and there is no audition - all are welcome. Sponsored positions are available so don’t let money be a barrier. We meet every Wednesday evening from 7-9pm during school terms at the CWA Hall, 20 West Market St, Richmond, NSW. One of our members Pammy says: ‘It’s funny - most of us think we can’t sing but somehow together, we sound amazing!’ She’s right! So come along and join in the fun - it’s always a great time of singing our hearts out, laughing our socks off and meeting friends old and new. is).getParent().getPrevious().style.display='';$(this).getParent().style.display='none';">less
