Dear Sweet Adelines Region 12,

California Heat has spent the past several years attempting to rebuild our chorus and add new members, but we have been unable to boost our numbers to remain a competitive chapter. Unfortunately, we were never truly able to recover after the COVID-19 pandemic. After much discussion, we have decided to close the chapter, but that doesn’t mean we will stop singing. Some of our members have chosen to join other choruses, become members at large, or have decided to step away, but the bonds we have created through Sweet Adelines will be forever.

We would like to thank you for all of your support throughout the 20 years California Heat has been chartered and are incredibly grateful for the inspiration, music and joy we have experienced! We look forward to seeing everyone at Regional.

Your Sisters in Song,
California Heat

Can you tell the weather’s been a bit lousy this weekend 😂 …as we have another graphic for you! After spotting these lists created for other music genres recently… we thought it was crying out for a Barbershop version…

1. “You don’t need to rehearse tags — they just happen naturally.”
Lies. Tags are 90% obsession…10% pretending you’re leaving.

2. “You have to wear a straw boater and striped waistcoat to be a real barbershopper.”
False. We make chords ring… not carnival announcements. (Unless you want to. No judgment.)

3. “Everyone will stay on pitch if they just listen better.”
…and unicorns are real. Let’s just talk about tuning skills and breath support!

4. “You only need one pitch pipe.”
Spoken like someone who’s never left it in another pocket 10 minutes before on stage time.

5. “We’ll end rehearsal on time.”
The classic lie. Add 45 minutes for chatting…riser removal and three more run-throughs.

6. “We don’t need to record this run — we’ll remember it.”
Fast-forward to next week…“Wait…how did we sing that again?”

7. “Nobody notices choreo mistakes.”
Except your entire front row… and the judges… and your grandma with a smartphone!

8. “It’s just a hobby.”
Sure. And so is owning 6 tuxedos, traveling 3,000 miles for a weekend and weeping over blend.

9. “The baritone part is easy.”
Spoken only by people who’ve never sung it and never will.

10. “We’re just singing for fun — it’s not a competition.”
Cue the intense internal monologue about tuning…vowels…and whether we really locked that tag!

Once again… we’d love to hear your own suggestions…
😂💈😱👏🎶

‘Choir’ by Chloe 💙 :: “These words were written in response to an online choir assignment given from me to my students during this unprecedented time. The assignment was to have my students tell me how they would define choir. Chloe (who is graduating in two days and has been a student of mine since the 8th grade) wrote this beautiful definition that with her permission I am compelled to share.” ~ Joseph Woolf, Choral Music Teacher at Desert Hills High School (Utah, USA)

We had the honor of singing for the residents of the Northern California Veteran’s Home today. What a joy!
