BOYS CAN SING – AND GET A GREAT EDUCATION TOO!
Audition for the Fort Bend Boys Choir's 30th Anniversary Season
Auditions for the Fort Bend Boys Choir’s special 30th Anniversary season will continue to be held on an appointment basis throughout the summer at the First United Methodist Church of Missouri City, 3900 Lexington Blvd. Boys with unchanged voices should be 8 years old or going into the third grade for the 2011-2012 school year. Scholarships and payment plans are available in addition to carpool assistance. Call the Fort Bend Boys Choir office to schedule an audition appointment. Also, ask about Music Magic, their music enrichment program for 6 and 7 year old boys!
Boys learn so much more than music as a member of the Fort Bend Boys Choir. They become leaders and develop time management skills, self-confidence, self-esteem and citizenship. Each boy plays an integral role in their choir; they get to be a part of something bigger than themselves, yet develop into the individual they will become.
