Heroic harmonies draw a crowd

Roof campaign needs support

Full house… Chris Priestly, Sonia Wilson and other members of the Unsung Heroes played to a packed Harmony Hall last Sunday night. Raise the roof campaign update

More than $55,000 is still needed for Harmony Hall’s new roof.
So far a Raise the Roof fundraiser at the Hall has raised $1314.90 and donations of $1290 have been received.
An estimated $60,000 is needed to replace the hall’s roof, gutters and downpipes.
The hall has been having a boom in usage, but a leaky guttering system on one side of the building is putting sound and musical equipment at risk.

Familiar face… Broadcaster Cameron Bennett was among the members of Unsung Heroes, who performed at Harmony Hall last Sunday evening
