After 36 hours of travelling, FYC's guests from Oregon (USA), the Hood River Valley Chamber Singers and their Director, Mark Steighner, arrived in Farnham at the United Reformed Church for a rehearsal prior to being welcomed by hosting families and taken 'home' for a good night's sleep!
Early the next morning the group travelled to Winchester for sight-seeing and a recital before returning to the church to prepare for the first concert of their UK tour, sharing the stage with FYC.
A tea was provided by FYC parents before the concert, during which the young people from different sides of the Atlantic had time to get to know each other.
