The Early Years – The chorus web site for the years 2005 until early 2011 survived the data crash that wiped out our recent site this year. Due to it’s age, it covers a significant part of our early history. It was constructed using an early web software package and is not on the Word Press package we are using today. However, if you would like to view the many photos, newsletters, event summaries of those days it is possible by clicking the paragraph title above. This will take you to a different site, so you will have to reenter wmhcbc.com to return to this site.
However, we intend to put some history on this site as well. Let’s start with “The First Year,” an article contributed in 2005 by then Chorus Historian Larry Kennedy.
