Celebrate the end of the quarter and nourish your spirit in preparation for finals weeks with a concert of exciting and beautiful choral music by the SCC Chamber Chorale and Shoreline Singers this coming Sunday, December 8, 7:30 pm.  “Baroque to Bacharach and Beyond” includes classics from the 15^th century (“Before Baroque”) to the present by Dufay, Brunetti, Farmer and Fauré, poetry by Shakespeare and Robert Burns, Hebrew and Haitian folk music, a lovely vocal jazz arrangement of a Burt Bacharach classic, and more.

The concert is at 1st Lutheran Church of Richmond Beach, 18354 8th Ave. NW, Shoreline, and is only $5 for SCC employees ($7 general admission, $5 seniors, $3 students).  Come in out of the cold for an hour and leave with a warm, fuzzy, musical glow!  Hope to see you there.

Shoreline’s Drama department presents Neil Simon’s “Rumors”

At a large, tastefully appointed Sneden’s Landing townhouse, the Deputy Mayor of New York has just shot himself. Though only a flesh wound, four couples are about to experience a severe attack of farce. Gathering for their tenth wedding anniversary, the host lies bleeding in the other room and his wife is nowhere in sight. His lawyer, Ken and wife Chris must get “the story” straight before the other guests arrive. As the confusions and miscommunications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity.

Click to order tickets for the shows. Shows are on Dec. 5, 6, 7, 12, 13 & 14 all at 7:30. Tickets are $11 for general admission, $9 for seniors and non students & $7 for students.

As we prepare for the evolving winter weather season, the 2013-14 Suspended Operations Memo from President Campbell is posted online.  Please review this information and contact your supervisor to discuss any questions you may have. Thank you!
