Hays High Plains Barbershop ChorusThe Hays High Plains Barbershop Chorus regretfully has had
to cancel our barbershop show for 2021. Because of health concerns due to the
coronavirus outbreak, Fort Hays State University has denied us use of Beach/Schmidt
Performing Arts Center and in the interest of the health of our patrons and our
members we feel that it is in everyone’s best interest that we take this step.
We did look at the possibility of other venues, but we didn’t feel that they would
allow us to provide the quality of the show we usually do and may put others at
risk. As difficult as this decision was, we feel this action was necessary for
all concerned.Be assured, we will be back next year with another great
show tentatively scheduled for April 2, 2022. We will publicize
the date as we get closer to that time. Fort those who purchased ads or tickets
for last year’s show, we will honor those ads and issue new tickets at our show
next year. We greatly appreciate the patronage the people of Western Kansas
have given us. We promise that we will be back and providing unique barbershop
style music again.While we may not be able to put on a full show, we do invite
organizations, business and communities to contact us if they would like us to
sing at an event. We are always happy to help you celebrate whatever event you
are putting on.On Thursday, May 20, 2021 we will be having an
open house for anyone, male or female, wanting to consider joining us in
singing in our unique style of A Cappella Harmony, we invite you to join us at
7:30 pm at the basement of Trinity Lutheran Church at 27th and Fort
in Hays, Ks. We encourage young singers to consider joining us as well, with
their parents’ permission of course. We have members that travel 1 ½ to 2 hours
each week just to come join us for rehearsal so that we can provide our
wonderful brand of music to the area so there is most likely someone in your
area that sings barbershop with us.We invite you to join our Facebook page so you can keep up
