Arrangements for rehearsals
Rehearsals take place in St James' Church, and run from 7:30—9:30pm, with an interval for refreshments and the raffle. Seating is in the main section of the church, but the side aisles available for those who are vulnerable to infections.
Please tick the attendance register sheet as you come into the church.
As ever, to keep us all safe, please do not attend if you have any viral symptoms.
Car parking
There is limited car parking at the church. Please remember to key in your registration number immediately on the panel at the rear of the church, or the one in the Parish Centre, every time you use the car park. If you do not, you will receive a £100 fine and neither the Choral Society nor the Church will be able to help you deal with the parking company the Church has employed to enforce the parking restrictions.
There is ample parking elsewhere in the town:
- Cluster of Nuts car park on Hallfield Lane, LS22 6JB
- Crossley Street LS22 6NL
- Riverside (aka Wilderness) car park LS22 6RF
- Morrisons car park is nearer, but there is a strict two-hour limit on parking which is rigorously enforced, even in the evenings, so beware.
Tea rota
During the interval at rehearsals, tea and coffee are served by choir members for a small charge, and all members are welcome to volunteer to take a turn on the rota.
Raffle
We have a weekly raffle. Tickets are available when you arrive, and in the interval. Please support the raffle - all proceeds go to choir funds. If you have any suitable raffle prizes please bring them along on any rehearsal evening.
