Skyline Chimers Christmas Concert 2020

Published

on

Skyline Chimers are pleased to present a little taste of Christmas. This year, due to the pandemic, the Chimers were not able to join together and present a concert. So, like many other organizations, they decided to go virtual!

Here’s a little background on the Skyline Chimers:

The group originated a few years after Allyson Gillispie, a music therapist, finished her music therapy degree at Shenandoah University. At SU, she volunteered with a similar group, now called NW Works Chimers. With support from many community members, the Skyline Chimers was born. This is a group of teenagers and adults with varying diagnoses (including autism, Down’s syndrome, and others). The group’s first official concert was in the spring of 2015. In 2017, a Christmas concert was added to the calendar. Since then they have performed every spring and Christmas season. They have also performed at Skyline Ranch Resort and won 1st prize for “Best Appearing Float” in the 2017 Warren County Fireman’s Parade.
