Sing Out Decatur Kids Shine On Fourth Of July
Sing Out Decatur marks its first anniversary as young performers who baked cakes sold hamburgers and scrubbed cars to raise funds. They will sing and help with Spirit of America events at Delano Park and Decatur High School Stadium, with Alabama peers aiding on lights and sound. They volunteer for publicity and event setup, receiving a modest donation in return.
