We don't believe in charging parents to hear their kids sing, so our concerts are FREE to the community – but this does leave YMC at a considerable financial disadvantage!
If you can, please support our unusual choral endeavor, where we bring an excellent musical education and experience to our kids in an informal atmosphere.

THANK YOU!!!
