Despite being in the mid-40s with no snow in sight, it was still a perfect day for Christmas carols. The New Brighton Middle School Chorus led the way, singing some of their favorite carols for Beaver County Radio out at Fischer’s Foodland in New Brighton. Beaver County Radio thanks Mike Fischer for allowing us to bring the prize van and prize wheel to the “concert”, and to Jeff Frankenstein and all the staff in the New Brighton Middle School Chorus for a great performance.
If you missed it at the event or on the air, you can check out the photos below, and also you can hear the performances from today during Christmas Music Round the clock on December 24 and 25!
