Meet Angeli’s Conductor

Hi, I’m Dawn

I'm a singer, voice teacher, and early childhood music educator. 

When I'm not singing in choir, you might find me walking my dog in the river valley, curled up with a book, or on an adventure with my three children.

  • In Angeli, we require singers to attend all regular Tuesday rehearsals and 2-3 concerts per year. The choir is a team and while it may seem like missing one voice is no big deal, it has a significant negative impact on the ensemble. We track attendance and rarely have issues because rehearsals are so much fun.

  • EYCC has a long history of dedicated, positive, and spirited volunteering! Because we are a non-profit organization, we rely on parent volunteers to help keep our programs running smoothly.

    We collect a $100 volunteer deposit and each choir family is required to volunteer a few times throughout the year to get the deposit back. You can find all the details about our volunteer policy here.

  • At the time of registration, we collect a $50 deposit to hold your child’s spot. This deposit is applied toward your annual tuition fees.

    Tuition fees can be paid in before the first rehearsal in September or in two installments due in September and December.

    Payment can be submitted by credit card, e-transfer, cash, or cheque.

  • Yes, we have a bursary program for families who qualify for financial assistance. Apply for a bursary here.

  • In addition to annual tuition, we collect a $100 volunteer deposit per family.
