KC Common quartet represented the Heart of America Chorus, performing Dec. 14, 2023, at "Cocktails with Kris Kringle," a fundraiser for the Fox 4 Love Fund.The invitation-only event drew more than 150 people to the fundraising raffle at the Zephyr Bourbon Bar, just off the main lobby of the Overland Park Marriott hotel. Raffle participants, many in holiday attire, competed for a number of prizes and visited special vendor booths.
Introduced as representing HOA, tenor Marlin Weidler, lead Danny Anderson, bari Paul Camarata and bass Steve Keisker provided festive background music to the drinks, snacks and conversation.
Ol' Kris Kringle sat nearby and jingled his bells during "Jingle Bells." He and Mrs. Claus (uh, Kringle) also sat for photos with participants.
The Fox4 Love Fund is dedicated to fulfilling unmet needs of children in the Kansas City area. The non-profit organization helps provide therapeutic tools, medical equipment, eye exams, clothing, shoes, bedding and other needed items.
