CAMBRIDGE SINGERS ACCEPTING RIGEL AWARD NOMINATIONS
Each year prior to The Singers Spring Show, the group accepts nominees for the Rigel Award. This award originated in 1988 to honor Everett “Red” and Mary Ann Rigel who were members of The Cambridge Singers for many, many years. Due to their outstanding dedication to The Singers and their musical support to the community, the award is presented annually in their honor to those who have contributed to the promotion of music and the musical quality of life in Guernsey County/or surrounding counties. Nominations can be made based on the following guidelines: the recipient need not be a current resident of Cambridge or Guernsey County, but his/her musical contribution must have directly impacted Guernsey County or surrounding counties.
