It has also been the guest choir at Saskatchewan Sings, and sang at the installation of Lynda Haverstock (a former member) as Lieutenant-Governor of Saskatchewan. In 2010, the choir performed at Podium, the biennial conference of the Association of Canadian Choral Communities, held in Saskatoon.

Perhaps best known for its annual Remembrance Day concert, the choir’s schedule is generally rounded out by a seasonal concert in December or January and on... less
