STRING PLAYERS UNITE!
<p>The Cedar Rapids Community Orchestra is now in its sixth year and this is the time for you to dust off that old violin, viola, cello or bass to join the fun. Remember all those good times in high school or college orchestra? The camaraderie? The friends? Well, you can do it again with the CRCO! All skill levels are welcome, no auditions, just come and enjoy playing in a group setting again. Since we’re a full orchestra we would be remiss in not inviting our fellow brass and woodwind players as well, so come be part of the fun. There’s still time to join for our concert coming up in May. Take the leap -- you’ll be glad you did.</p> 2020-03-30 21:00:00 -05003/30/207:00 p.m.Cedar Hills Community ChurchCedar Rapids -
