WHS Choir

2016 11 14

This year Wayne High School restarted its choir under the direction of Joni Taft. The choir started out with about 15 students and grew to 38 by the Christmas Season. Many of these students have gone out of their way to come early to school and during their lunchtime to work on learning and practicing their songs. As Joni has built a fun and talented choir, they have performed throughout the county. They have performed at the Sr. Citizens dinner, PIE Night, Thurber, Fremont and Hanksville Wards, Bicknell Town Council Christmas Party, Thurber and Lyman Ward Relief Society, the Inter-faith Christmas Program, and the Loa Stake Choir Christmas Program.  The community been very grateful and have had donation to support their program. South Central, the Ito Foundation as well as other community individuals have awarded the choir money. The choir students and Joni have made hundreds of loaves of bread to help finance their choir outfits. The Wayne County School Board has been very supportive towards the program.

We appreciate all the support financially and otherwise that we have received from this community.  We have received many, many compliments and positive comments about how nice it is to have a Wayne High Choir.

The choir is now working on our Family Night on Broadway, which is scheduled for Monday Night May 1st and will feature the Wayne High Band as well as the Choir performing selections from Les Miserables. The choir is also working on 50's selections in preparation for the Preference Ball, which will be a 50's theme. We are grateful to Joni Taft for her dedication and spirit that has brought this great choir to our community. We are especially grateful for our talented students who are providing such a wonderful service.
