Our History |
The Cascade Foothills Chorale is an adult choir which began as a group of community members who gathered to provide music at the 1976 Bi-Centennial celebration of a local church. The group began as BECCO (Buckley, Enumclaw Community Choral Organization) and was later called Northwest ECCO (Enumclaw Community Choral Organization).
Now known as Cascade Foothills Chorale (CFC), the chorus continues a strong sense of tradition and community. CFC performs concerts semi-annually in spring and winter and enjoys bringing music to our listeners by giving additional performances throughout our community. |
