Choir of the Sound’s major community outreach activity revolves around its annual Choir of the Sound Scholarship Award. The goal of this award is to encourage graduating seniors from North King County and South Snohomish County high school choirs to make music an ongoing part of their lives through college and beyond.
Choir of the Sound believes strongly that singing and producing wonderful music is a lifelong endeavor and wants to encourage students to continue this pursuit long after high school. Partial proceeds from our annual fundraising auction, Bottles ’n Bites, provide support for this award, which is given out annually at the choir’s spring Pops show.
