The Bolingbrook Community Chorus has the twin goals of bringing enjoyable music to the Bolingbrook community and to provide an opportunity for singers to employ their talents. They welcome all interested people age 16 and older of any vocal ability to sing at their Winter and Spring Concerts and other performances in and around Bolingbrook.
“Singing the national anthem before a Slammers game is an annual tradition for the Bolingbrook Community Chorus dating back even to before I joined the group,” said Stephen J. Chojnicki, president of the chorus. “All of us in the chorus look forward to this opportunity to get together with our kids, friends, and families at the ballpark to sing the anthem and to enjoy some professional baseball right here in the area.”
