Join us! The Dutch Fork Choral Society is always accepting new members. There is no audition to join the ensemble, and no experience is required. We have members ranging from teenager to 80+ years of age, some of whom have been singing all their lives, and others who are just starting out. The DFCS rehearses every Tuesday night from 6:30-8:30 PM at Mount Horeb Lutheran Church (101 E. Boundary St., Chapin) and typically sings 2 concerts, one in the Fall and one in Spring. We perform some concerts more than once but in different areas and are also exploring collaborations with other groups.
Don’t fancy yourself as a musician? The DFCS is always looking for volunteers to help with the various events our organization runs. From helping behind the scenes with publicity or fundraising or serving as an usher at our concerts, there are many ways for you to get involved in our artistic community!
