Ann Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Have you ever gone Christmas caroling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginnyde Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Yes, but only once. First, I can't carry a note in a bucket, I mean I am really, really bad. Second, the group only sang Rudolph and We Wish You...... I like the old traditional carols, can only take so much of Santa Got Run Over By ...... I am singing Holy Night right now and I am so glad you can not hear me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamataca Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 As a girl scout, amny moons ago, we used to go caroling at the nursing home. Mom had some girls couts carol at her house last year, though, so the tradtion still lives on. Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geri Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 This was how we made money as kids, I don't know if English kids still do it. We went door to door in the neighborhood, rang the bell and asked if they'd like to hear a carol, if yes we sang and they paid up - not much but if you did it for a few hours serious (to an adolescent) money could be made. There isn't enough money in the world to make me do this now as like Ginny I can't sing to save my life. Geri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patut Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Many times. Usually I am the leader since I'm a music teacher. Now that I'm a surviving spouse who is ready to retire, the younger ones are coming to my house to seranade me. I absolutely love it.

Treebywater Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Yes! I LOVE Christmas Caroling! We'd have gone with our church this year, but they scheduled it during naptime.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TracyD Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Oh yes. When I was younger we had neighbors that had a big Christmas party every year and we ended the night by going caroling. This is one of my favorite childhood memories. In fact, the neighbors were good friends of my parents and when I got married I had my wedding pictures taken in their beautiful garden. Thanks for the memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Wood Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Yes, and it was neat, and was many years ago. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missyk Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 When I still worked in the nursing home I'd put on my Santa hat and stop by each resident's room and ask if they'd like to hear a carol...and then sang it for them if they had a favorite! I am sometimes glad that the hearing wasn't the best in the world with some of the carols that they had me sing! But I always enjoyed it and still love those songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
