On December 4th, 5th, and 6th, 52 adults and 21 juniors came together and put on an incredible show at the Elizabeth Forward High School.

For 50 years, the Elizabeth Forward Area Community Chorus (EFACC) has gathered as a group and routinely organizes a concert for the locals. This year, with adults from various communities and kids from six different school districts including Belle Vernon, Elizabeth Forward, McKeesport, Norwin, and South Allegheny – and with the youngest member being only 6 years old – the group put on a concert titled "HARK"!
Singing in tune, with their angelic voices blending together in Christmas spirit, they sang holiday classics such as "Do You Hear What I Hear," "The First Noel," "Hark the Herald Angels Sing," and "The Little Drummer Boy," while keeping the interest up with more unheard of songs such as "No Time To Diet," "Santa's Crazy Reindeer," and "Santa Claus Boogie."
The EFACC also asked each person to bring a canned good to be donated to a local food bank and the admission of $10 per adult and $8 per child/senior will benefit a local charity. In addition to the concert, there was a concession stand with baked goods from the chorus members and hot chocolate and coffee for sale.
The EFACC also provided a 50/50 raffle and a basket raffle which contained snack items. These raffles were held at each performance. The money collected from these fundraisers will go toward the general bank of the chorus.
