Girls Choral Academy of Grand Rapids, MI invited to perform for groundbreaking event. Governor, Mayor in Attendance.
Thursday, August 15, 2024
The Girls Choral Academy, located at 2920 Fuller Ave NE, #104, Grand Rapids, MI 49505, was invited to sing during the very special and highly anticipated groundbreaking event for the new Joan Secchia Children’s Rehabilitation Hospital, which will be located across Wealthy St. from Mary Free Bed in downtown Grand Rapids. A very special thanks to Joan Secchia, Senator Winnie Brinks, and Congresswoman Hillary J Scholten for taking a minute to empower these ladies with wonderful words of wisdom and a photo opportunity. And to top it off, the choir performed The Beautiful Rain just as the rain started as a backdrop to their voices.
