Christmas Eve Caroling for Children's Charity

[Jessi]

Hello! I am trying to put together a group of carolers to sing a few (maybe half a dozen) carols at a benefit for needy children on Christmas Eve. If you’re interested, let me know! You don’t have to be a professional singer, and we need all kinds of folks – Chinese, Western, Men, Women, everyone!

This sounds like fun – perhaps you and Hannah can combine caroling resources: Caroling on Thursday

Added this to the December Events thread.

I’d be up for this. What kind of places would we be going to? I imagine we may scare half the population of one apartment complex to death. A large group of foreigners knocking on doors and making noises at them.

I’m interested in this. More details? Where? When? What charity?

Hi there! The event is on Christmas Eve in central Chengdu. It is an annual charity event sponsored by a major business group in Chengdu, raising money to benefit kids in poverty. It will be at a Christmas gala event – food and drink provided. Location is in central Chengdu. We would sing about 5-6 songs at 5:30, 7 and 8. If interested, hit me up at [email protected].

Hello! Thanks for all the responses! An update: We are meeting for a rehearsal on the 23rd at the Bookworm at 6pm. If you can make it, that would be great! I’ll have carol sheets for everyone and we can practice and then maybe have some dinner 😀

Is this also the set list? The flow is all over the place.

[Jessi]

No – not the set list! Just a random order 😀

Here is an attachment with the carol sheets 😀
