Information from their website:
"Everyone is cordially invited and is most welcome to sing with us at the Friends House in central Toronto. We'll sing from the 1991 edition of The Sacred Harp, starting at 10:00 a.m (registration opens at 9:30), with dinner on the grounds at noon.
Don't miss this once-a-year chance to raise your voices with sacred-harp singers from Ontario, Quebec, and nearby US states (and further away?)!
Everyone is welcome and loaner books will be available. Ontario singers, please bring a generous, ready-to-serve contribution to the potluck meal at noon.
Please arrive early to register and get a name tag. Sign up to lead or ask someone else to lead your favourite song.
Give what you can to help with rental and other expenses."
