Mira Costa Choirs Annual Toy Drive
Please consider donating a new, unwrapped toy, book or stuffed animal for a child under the age of 5 to the MCHS Choirs annual toy drive. All gift donations go to the children of PATH Gramercy, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing transitional housing and services to young single parents with babies, toddlers, and preschool aged children. Donations may be dropped off in one of the collection boxes set up in the Mira Costa choir room, school front office, or other locations around campus. There also will be a collection box set up outside the Costa auditorium during the MCHS choir concert on Friday, Dec. 14th.
 
Because we know you have many opportunities to make worthwhile contributions and donations this time of year, please feel free to contribute to this toy drive only if it doesn’t conflict with your other charitable commitments. However, if you’re looking for a worthy cause to support this holiday season, please consider donating a toy to this drive. Your gift will help make the holidays a little brighter for a child in need.
 
Choral Union Update
On November 12th, Choral Union traveled out to The University of Redlands for the High School Women’s Choir Festival. This year they participated in the morning session with 12 other women’s choirs from across the region. Last to sing on the festival they performed beautifully receiving rave reviews from the adjudicators. Comments included, “such a gorgeous sound,” and our favorite, “ I could listen to you all day!”  Thanks to our wonderful singers from Choral Union. You represented us so well.
