Take a remarkable ‘walk in the woods’ in Westminster Ponds – a beautiful pocket of Southeast London and an Environmentally Significant Area right within the city. This will be the site for an exciting event that London Pro Musica Choir has planned to kick off our new season. It is called “Byrd in the Woods” and it is an “Outdoor Musical Experience”. Does the idea of being in nature on a crisp fall morning, and leading a small group of music-lovers down a winding path through the forest to encounter occasional singing stations performing a cappella sound like something you might enjoy? Because that’s what this will be, and we’d love you to be part of it! London Pro Musica is looking for a minimum of 20 volunteer "tour guides" to lead hikers/walkers through this wonderful outdoor musical walk.

I need volunteers for various areas of the race. I will need people at the registration table and the swag bag pick up.

I will also need 2-3 people at each of the 3 water stations.
