Weber State University Alumni Association presents the WSU Alumni Singers, directed by Evelyn Harris, in concert, Sunday, December 11 and Monday, December 12, 7:30 pm, at the Holy Family Catholic Church at 1100 East 5550 South in Ogden. The Singers are doing a “sub for Santa” for a needy family at Christmas and would like to suggest a donation of non-perishable food and/or a monetary donation to help with this project. 

The concert will be ideal family entertainment with music that include “Have You Seen the Baby?” “Joy to the World,” “Silent Night,” “Pat-a-pan,” “Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer”  and “Christmas Day.”  There will be a song by the men and also the ladies of the choir.  The special numbers this year will include solos, and duets.

Evelyn said she is grateful to be doing what she does. “I work with a terrific group of people that love to sing and the music we are doing is such a pleasure to perform. This is a beautiful concert but it is all for the benefit of other people. It is a thrill to be able to help people at Christmas and share the joy!”

Weber State Singers was an active performing group at Weber State University, with Evelyn Harris directing the group for seventeen years. When she retired they also retired the group, which was then without a director. The members had a strong desire to keep the Singers alive and did so through the auspices of the WSU Alumni Office. The WSU Alumni Singers have been together since 2002. The current group is comprised of former WSU Singers as well as Evelyn Harris’ vocal students.
