We are happy to announce we are returning to the lovely Detweiler Meetinghouse located one kilometre west of Roseville, Ontario for an All-Day Singing.
When:
- Registration begins at 9:30am
- Singing will be from 10:00am to approximately 3:30pm (EDT), with midday dinner on the grounds.
Where: Detweiler Meetinghouse at 3445 Roseville Road, North Dumfries, Ontario.
Directions: Located in the Town of North Dumfries in the Regional Municipality of Waterloo, is 105 km (66 mi.) southwest of Toronto. From Highway 401, take exit 268. Turn left (west) on Hwy 97, then right on Northumberland St and then left on Roseville Road.
Accommodations: The nearest cities are Cambridge, Kitchener, and Waterloo, where a variety of hotels, motels, B&Bs and Airbnbs can be found.
Vaccinations and Masking: The Toronto Shape Note Community is a loving community that cares for our most vulnerable members, and as vaccinations are proven to reduce the spread of COVID-19, we would prefer that all participants are vaccinated. While we do not have the capacity to check, nor the interest in engaging in a compliance-relationship with our friends, we do trust that all who chose to join us will respect that trust, and honour our community’s preference. In the same spirit, masking in not required, but we strongly encourage it out of care for others.
The meetinghouse has plenty of windows we can open for ventilation, as well as plenty of outdoor space.
Check out the Facebook Event for more information. This is Ontario shape-note singers’ biggest event of the year, and one you absolutely shouldn’t miss!!! For questions, more info and/or to volunteer to help, contact torontoshapenotesinging@
