A Volunteer worker at a community center somewhere in Florida, came across our site while searching the internet for material to spark the interest of young children under her charge, in the art of a-Capella singing. She thanked us for this link page in particular and passed on a link in return, that was found by one of her young girls by the name of Zoe. I am going to post this link here and on behalf of the Strathroy Vocal Federation, I want to thank Zoe for finding this link for us because it takes us to a site page that contains a lot of historical information about an art that we enjoy so much and we wish her the best in her endeavors to follow her dreams in becoming a teacher of music; and here is Zoe's link: http://www.theaterseatstore.com/a-capella-theater
