The Westminster College Concert Choir will present the seventh annual "Music and Meatballs" Friday, Oct. 5, at the New Wilmington Presbyterian Church. Patrons may choose from three seating times: 4:30 p.m., 5:45 p.m., and 7 p.m.
This year's rock-and-roll theme will be carried out in poodle skirts and leather jackets. Dinner includes spaghetti and meatball, salad, bread, dessert, hot and cold beverages, and a variety of 1950s-style entertainment.
"Forty-two Westminster students participate in this fundraiser," said Dr. Robin Lind, director of choral activities. "Beth Brooks, a member of the Student Affairs office staff, helps with dishwashing every year. This event helps to support the choir's winter tour, which will include Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Ohio. We will be traveling Jan. 6-14, 2008."
Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for seniors, students, and children. Reservations are appreciated and can be made by calling (724) 946-7270. Tickets will be available at the door and take-outs will also be available.
Kim Hasara, a junior music performance major from Pittsburgh and a member of the choir, said, "It's a good time. Kick back, relax, and enjoy the music and the atmosphere."
