Many Southborough residents are active members of regional choruses based in neighboring towns. Those groups have asked me to share news on their concerts this weekend and/or next.

Below are the details on relevant community chorus concerts taking place next door, plus a reminder about the Southborough-based Handel’s Messiah Concert.

While I’m sharing this news, I should also remind that a free, outdoor community singalong is scheduled for this Friday night, hosted by the Girl Scouts. You can find those details here.
