The Casey choir won cash and a new piano after being voted
best in the state as part of New Jersey 101.5’s Christmas choir
promotion.
Red Bank Catholic High School’s choir was presented with a
$1,000 check and a new Hallet Davis and Company school piano Monday
after winning the grand prize in a local radio Christmas Choir
Contest in December.
New Jersey 101.5 presented Choir Director Shawn Mack with the
check in a presentation at the school. The entire school choir was
also on hand for the award presentation and blessing of the new
piano.
The contest was organized by 101.5, a Millennium Radio station,
and sponsored by a number of organizations, including Worldwide
Piano and Music School, Gene and Shelley Enlow Recital Hall at Kean
University, PODS, Fords Jewelers and the men and women of the State
Trooper Fraternal Association.
Schools throughout the state we invited to send in their choir’s
recordings to the station through November. After a panel of judges
narrowed the field down to 15, each of the finalists was played
after the noon news report each day during December. Listeners had
the chance to vote on the station’s website to decide the best
choir in the state and the Caseys emerged victorious.
