Welcome to the new look of the Harmony in the Grove Newsletter. It is our desire to keep you updated on the comings and goings of the Tualatin Valley Harmony Masters.
The Tualatin Valley Harmony Masters was founded in 1973 by Chuck Olson, long time barbershopper and well known throughout the barbershop world as one of the greatest entertainers of all time. It is our hope to carry on even a slice of his greatness.
After over a year of not being able to meet together in person we are back rehearsing each Tuesday evening at Rogers Park in Forest Grove. 6:30 PM.

I trust everyone got thru this past very hot weekend. It was a scorcher. We have been doing in-person rehearsals and it is great. We are meeting at Rogers Park each Tuesday evening. We would like to see you there and singing with us. We miss you…
The BHS has updated their website and members only site (member center) if you haven’t been able to go and update your info please do so. It is very important to the society, district, and TVHM.
In harmony

"Doctor, you have to help me! I think I'm shrinking!"
"Now settle down. You're just going to have to be...a little patient".

I was walking in the jungle and saw a lizard on his hind legs telling jokes. I turned to a local tribesman and said "that lizard is really funny!". The tribesman replied, "that's not a lizard... He's a stand up chameleon..."

It’s hard to explain puns to kleptomaniacs because they always take things literally.
