Cascade Singers Start Rehearsals for St. Pat’s at St. Pete’s Annual March 17th Fund Raiser

By Garry Estep

The Dalles, Ore. – The Cascade Singers invite choristers, soloists, instrumentalists, dancers, readers, bagpipe players and all other Hibernophiles to join us as we get ready for our annual St. Patrick’s celebration at St. Peter’s Landmark in downtown The Dalles on Thursday, March 17, 2022.

Wait a minute. Hibernophiles? Huh?

A Hibernophile is a person who is fond of Irish culture, the Irish language and Ireland in general.

Rehearsals for this annual fundraiser are Sundays at 7:00 P.M. at Zion Lutheran Church (10th and Union) and Thursdays at 7:00 P.M. at the United Church of Christ Congregational (5th and Court).

For further information contact music director Garry Estep at estepgarry@gmail.com.
