READERS ON THE ROAD

The Limestone College and Community Chorus just returned from a very successful tour of Austria. Honoring Mozart's 250 birthday, the chorus sang in cathedrals and chapels in which Mozart performed. The main event was to sing his Coronation Mass in the Basilika St. Michael in Mondsee. The group also enjoyed sightseeing in the old city centers of Vienna and Salzburg touring gardens, palaces, castles/fortresses and many other attractions. On your next trip out of town or tour of duty, take a copy of The Ledger along and send a picture of yourself or your group reading the newspaper to: cody@gaffneyledger.com, or editor@ gaffneyledger.com.
