State Fair Youth Choir
Newbury ninth-grader Winter Harley and eleventh-grader Grace Wright have been selected as participants in this year’s All-Ohio State Fair Youth Choir. Only 200 members of the youth choir are selected each spring on the basis of their ability, experience and the recommendation of their high school choral director.
Five days before the opening of the Ohio State Fair, the new choir meets at the Ohio Expo Center in Columbus and launches into a rigorous schedule that includes vocal training, sectional and full rehearsals, solo auditions and marching instruction. Once the fair opens, the youth choir sings six to eight concerts a day and marches up to 10 miles a day to various performance sites around the 360-acre fairgrounds. Winter and Grace will perform at the fair July 27 to Aug. 7.
