NEWS RELEASE
SOO SINGS FOR KIDS
*************************
Due to the ongoing state of emergency as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Soo Sings for Kids Executive Committee has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 show. This decision was not made lightly, but in the spirit of keeping our community safe, we feel this is the best decision.

We want to thank all of our participants who have put in hours of their time to prepare for the show.

They have been incredibly supportive of our decision to cancel the 2020 show. In fact, teams have committed to donate their registration fees to a variety of local charities during this difficult time.

More than $3,000 will be donated to local charities such as the Algoma Public Health Infant Child Development Program, Pauline’s Place, Twinkie Foundation, YMCA, Algoma Family Services Foundation, THRIVE Foundation, the Centre Victoria pour femmes and the Sault College Student Relief/Food Bank. Thank you to our teams for your commitment to our community.

To our sponsors, ticket buyers and viewers of our show, while it is unfortunate we have to cancel the 2020 show, don’t worry we will be back in 2021. We have already secured a show date of May 12, 2021.

For those who have purchased tickets, you can keep them and keep the seat you booked for the 2021 show. If anyone wishes to return their 2020 show ticket, you can return it for a refund once the box office reopens. If you have any questions, please contact the Sault Community Theatre Centre at [email protected].

We want to sincerely thank everyone in the community for their support of Soo Sings. Because of your generosity, Soo Sings raises thousands of dollars for local children’s charities each year. The continuous support inspires us each year and we can’t wait to put on another spectacular show in 2021.

Stay safe and stay healthy.
