The Westfalls Host Salon Concert to Raise Trip Money

CENTRAL — On Saturday, April 14, Dr. Russell and Nancy Westfall hosted a Salon Concert at their home in Central to raise money for the choir at Blackwater Methodist Church.  The choir is taking a summer trip to participate in a mass choir singing Mozart’s Requiem at Lincoln Center in New York City.

The musical performers were cellist Dr. Jee-Keoun Ko and pianist Chia-Hsing Lin.  They gave an impressive concert which included classical works as well as a few contemporary pieces. About 85 Central residents were there to enjoy the concert, the food, the Westfall’s gardens, and the beautiful day.

The salon concert raised over $2,200.  Special thanks to Blackwater Church member John Andre, who made a very generous donation which he raised through pressure washing homes specifically for this cause.
