The choir will be having a concert on April 30, starting at 7 p.m. tickets will be $5 and sold online ahead of the concert.

“My favorite thing about chorus is making new friends and the overall experiences,” freshman Natalie Lear said. “Getting to hang out with friends after school, and going to be on stage with them is such a good experience.”

The concert will be held in the Altoona Area High School B building. Programs will be available upon entry.

About the Contributor

Charlie Kephart, Editor in Chief
Hey! During my third year on staff, my senior year, I have taken on the role of being Editor in Chief for Mountain Echo. My sophomore and junior year, I served as associate editor. Outside of school I enjoy hanging out with my best friend, exercising, watching Netflix, photography and working as a lifeguard and teaching swim lessons at the YMCA. After high school I plan to pursue a medical path, with the intent of being a nurse practitioner. I’m looking forward to this school year and seeing what it brings our way!
