ESK COMMUNITY CHOIR GIVING THE GIFT OF SONG IN FERNVALE



The Esk Community Choir has come a long way since Choir members vied for room on the backs of trucks in order to entertain the masses but lack of suitable space has never stood in the way of their living their motto "Service in Song".   Though space in the Marquee at Fernvale on Saturday 27th April was limited, the Esk Community Choir were there in numbers and fine voice to share their gifts of music at an event which was designed to acknowledge the importance of "Community" when it has been needed.  This "Flood and Recovery- the Somerset Story" is a window to a courageous and memorable episode of Fernvale's and surrounding area's history, depicting the spirit of a Community to rally, repair and restart following the recent flood devastations of January 2011.   It was the privilege of the Esk Community Choir to be able to be part of this momentous occasion.
