Ladybirds On The Wing In 2004

Posted in News on Wednesday, May 11, 2005

The Ladybirds, under the direction of Ellie Batchelor, maintain a very busy schedule of events, including weekly rehearsals on Thursday evenings from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Park Place United Methodist Church in LaVale. Frequently, after practice, many of the ladies venture off to Bob Evans for a snack and more singing. The people at Bob Evans have gotten to know the group, and certain patrons even come to Bob’s just to hear the Ladybirds on Thursday evenings! What a following!
