Fifth and sixth grade BHC members will perform their final show of the year on Saturday, June 5 at the world-famous Maria’s Taco Express at 2529 South Lamar (just south of Bluebonnet, next to Walgreen’s – see map). Maria’s is a South Austin institution, and was recently featured on the Food Network’s Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives.
The show starts at 4:00 PM, but be sure to come early to get a good seat, order some great food, and pick up the new choir CD which will be on sale for $10 each.
BHC parent Jeff Clarkson created this terrific slideshow that includes pictures from all of the Choir’s performances during the 2009-2010 school year. The slideshow was shown after the Choir’s performance at the Big Back Yard Show on May 26.
Photos for the slideshow are from a number of excellent photographers who generously provided permission to share their work. Among them are Joanne Foote, Lynn Williamson, Antoinette Perez, Jeff Clarkson, Chan Geltemayer, Kathy Carr, Gavin Tabone, Sandra Ritz, and Glenn Chase.
