Get Into the Christmas Spirit at STAC

The STAC Singers and the House Band are putting together a Christmas concert to help the students, faculty, and parents of St. Thomas Aquinas College get into the holiday spirit. It will take place Thursday December 6th, 2012 at 7:30 pm in The Sullivan Theater.

For the entire semester, the STAC Singers and the House Band have been preparing a set of everyone’s favorite holiday tunes to perform at their annual Christmas concert. Some of these tunes include: “Sleigh Ride”, “Dashing Through the Snow”, “All I Want for Christmas is You" and many more. There will also be performances of new songs no one has every heard of as well as different arrangements of classics. Certain members of each club will also take turns singing solos they have prepared.

The STAC Singers and House Band are some of the only clubs on campus that let students perform and put on shows for their fellow classmates and teachers. It is an artistic outlet that lets them show off their creativity and talent. They are run by Dr. Evan Matthews and Professor Craig Martin, respectively. The singers meet Thursdays at 2:35 pm in The Sullivan Theater and the House Band meets Wednesdays at 8 pm in Maguire 133.

For students on a budget, it is the perfect event because the concert is free and open to the public. It is a nice way to break up studying and cramming for finals; take an hour or two to see a show with fun holiday music and relieve the stress.

The concert is free, but they are asking, if able, to give donations at the door. All of the proceeds will go to People to People of Rockland. It is a great cause and the perfect way to help someone for the holidays.

Come down and support of the arts of St. Thomas Aquinas College and have a great time doing it. This event is perfect for everyone so bring the family!
