The Danville Girls Chorus is an organization run
completely by volunteers and this includes its leadership.
As the artistic director, Ken Abrams oversees the
musical direction of the Chorus. The day to day operations
of the chorus are handled by an eight member volunteer
parent board. These board members handle a variety
of responsibilities including the renting of classroom
space, hiring staff, securing concert venues and
managing rehearsals and concerts.
A board member's term is one year, although some
dedicated parents often stay on the board for more
than one year, sometimes in different positions.
Prospective board members can "shadow"
current members to learn about the position responsibilities
and to make the transition from year to year an
easy one. We are currently looking for board members
for the 2008-2009 season. Won't you consider
helping our organization so your daughter can continue
with this wonderful musical experience. Please call
837-2624 for more information. We'd love to have
you join us.

Other Positions
In addition to the volunteer Board of Directors
each singer's family is asked to fulfill one volunteer
job during the choir season. These volunteer positions
vary slightly in length, but are usually between
30 minutes and two hours. These positions might include
setting up a concert, chaperoning singers before
a concert, or selling tickets. These dedicated parents
make DGC the wonderful organization it is and provide
singers with an exceptional musical experience.
