Western Manitoba Youth Choir “WestMan” is now an over twenty year-old tradition in our region. This honor choir auditions for Grade 10-12 singers in May, and runs two rehearsal weekends in, and then tours for. The guest conductors are considered to be among the best in the province, who whip this group of approximately 50 singers into national level quality in just two intense sessions in Sept/Oct at Camp Wannakumbac, Clear Lake, followed by a four day tour in October throughout WestMan. Call Mr. Bill Lawson in Souris at 483.2693 for more information.
