It’s that time of year again—I already heard “Deck the Halls” playing at the new Bagel Market. Yeesh. The season also brings forth the 10th Annual Jingle Bell Jamboree concert on Saturday night, Dec. 18th, @ 7PM at Old First Church, a Park Slope tradition supported by the Park Slope Civic Council, Park Slope Parents, and The Old First Dutch Reformed Church. This musical extravaganza will draw from a variety of cool Brooklyn based performing ensembles including:
–The Brooklyn Tech High School Choir
–The ‘Old First’ Family String Band
–St. Joseph’s High School Step Team
–The PS 97 Show Choir
–The Brooklyn Community Chorus.
–Plus: Jingle Bell Jamboree founder and producer, Ethan Schlesser and Rev. Daniel Meeter will host a festive sing-a-long throughout the show. You won’t want to miss that or the traditional grand finale: The 12 Days of Christmas being sung by the entire festive audience!
It should be a nice shindig and it’s always fun to be in that big old church. A $5 -$10 (children/adult) suggested donation. 100% of the proceeds go towards any additional expenses and to the non-profit arts organizations performing in the concert that provide services to our community.
