Adult Singer

Residential and Commuter Options

We look forward to welcoming advanced adult singers and choir directors to join us for a wonderful week of music-making and learning. Adult references are required. And, remember to purchase your repertoire packet from Lois Fyfe Music.

Residential Adults have two rooming options: A Single or a Private Single

A Single has a shared bathroom with other people (either a communal bathroom, a jack-and -jill setup, or a bathroom in a suite.)

A Private Single is usually offered in either the jack-and-jill style rooms or the suite style, but the other rooms in the jack-and-jill or suite will not be filled, so the space is for yourself. A Private Single requires a supplement of $40 extra per day.
