Dodd Stadium Ticket Fundraiser

Happy Spring!  The Tyl Chamber Choir is doing a fundraiser beginning the first week of April to help defray costs of our trip to sing in the Great East Music Festival in May.  We are selling ticket vouchers during April and May to the CT Tigers  Baseball games at Dodd Stadium, Norwich.  

The Chamber Choir is singing at the Tigers' first weekend home game on Sunday, June 23rd at 4 PM.  

The $8.00 vouchers are good for any home game this 2013 season with the Tigers. It's a great opportunity for families to spend time together at the ball park, and the CT Tigers enjoy interacting with children during and after the game.  We hope you will join us!

 Please let me know if you have any questions.  Thank you so much!
