Community Karaoke

Searching for something new to sing? Community Karaoke has several songbooks available for its Wednesday-night parties. There is a one with songs listed alphabetically by artist and category. There, you’ll find all the popular hits by Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Reba McEntire, Anne Murray and more.It even has show tunes, gospel selections, Christmas carols, Irish diddies and patriotic numbers.

Another songbook lists about 20,000 selections alphabetically by title, alongside the various artists who recorded them.

Singers are welcome to join the Monday practice sessions from 1-3 p.m. upstairs in Clubhouse 6. This is a chance to try out something new, possibly something discovered in those songbooks, in front of an encouraging group in a comfortable room.

Karaoke parties are on Wednesdays in Clubhouse 1, beginning at 5:30 p.m. Fresh coffee and a tasty treat are often available. Everyone is welcome, whether or not they sing, to enjoy their neighbors’ company in a fun environment.
