We hope to see you there!!
Scarborough is joining us for practice on Monday! At our Hall!
Spring Convention 2025 was held at Belleville, and we were thrilled to be able to sing for everyone this year.
To celebrate our 75th anniversary, we're joined by a number of ex-East Yorkers to sing a couple of songs from our repetoire! It was great singing with folks we haven't sang with for a while, and catching up with other barbershoppers in general.
There were lots of quality quartets and choruses singing throughout the day, and it was especially exciting seeing new talent do so well at the convention.

As another year comes to an end, we're glad to be able to host our annual Holiday Party once again!
Thanks to our many guests for helping make this year end with lots of festive cheer!
At long last, after a 5 year hiatus, we're back performing at the Ontario District Fall Convention!
Here's us getting ready to sing:
Together with the Dukes we've managed to secure third place this time. You can catch our performance in the YouTube video linked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSr55iMdu6o
We're gearing up to sing with the Scarborough Dukes at the Fall Convention this year!
One more week of practice before we head on down to Hamilton to compete!
Wow, what a turn out! Thanks to all the guests that came out for the night. It was a lot of fun sharing our hobby with all of you, and we're glad everyone followed along and tried a bit of singing.
Pat did a wonderful job guiding all of us through warm up; Eric was great at teaching us a tag; Geoff regaled us with interesting stories from the long history of our Chapter; and many thanks to all the East Yorkers that came together and help make this a great event. We hope to do more guest nights in the future, and we're always on the look out for singers!
Another week, another park!
Once again it was nice to see a number of park goers stop by during our performance. It was also great to have a couple of chorus friends show up as well.
We'll be out and about singing for a couple more weeks!
