People of all ages, backgrounds and singing ability gather to sing old style a capella hymns from three different tunebooks - Sacred Harp 1992 edition, Sacred Harp (Cooper) and Southern Harmony with loaner books available and Dinner on the Ground both days.

Direction to HC - Coming from Louisville, take exit 14 and turn left (look for the yellow & black sign.) The church will be on your left in around 1.5 miles. There is a pond, an old stone church and a newer church next to it. It will be on the church sign.

All activities are free and you don't have to be a singer to join us (heck, just come for a free meal!)
