Dear Grade 4, 5, 6 and 7 Parents,

Once again our former music teacher and accomplished solo artist, Tami Comuzzi, is hosting an outdoor concert at the St. Francis Church Garden on July 18 after the 5:00 pm Mass. This is a beautiful evening with fun music in an amazing setting. All proceeds will go to the parish.

Mrs. Comuzzi is looking for at least 10 choir students or more who can sing in tune and would like to join Mrs. Comuzzi in a song at this concert.  Mrs. Comuzzi has chosen the popular World Cup song:  “Wavin’ Flag” by the Canadian artist K’Naan.
