“Every year we have so many wonderful performers who make this event memorable -- singers, instrumentalists, bands and dance troupes,” Talent Coordinator Carole-Ann Baer noted. “This year, you’ll see some exciting and unusual acts throughout the telethon. We have talent from as young as 6 years old up to 80 years old.” Sudbury favorites the Hip Hop Mamas, The Friends of Broadway, The Encore Glee Club, The Performing Arts Connection and Dancer’s Workshop and members of the Golden Tones will be performing.
