Area teens to make prime time debut in ‘The Sing-Off’
It isn’t often that you can watch a national TV show airing during prime time and say… hey, I think I know that person. That might just happen this week when seven Dayton area teens appear on NBC’s reality TV competition show called ‘The Sing-Off.’
Members of Eleventh Hour, a choir at Fairmont High School, competed earlier this summer for a chance to win the grand prize of $100,000 and a Sony Music contract. Members of Eleventh Hour are Colton Jones, Bobby Symes, Emily D. Gatlin, Kendall Young, Kurt Zimmerman, Claire Keathley and Anna Townsend.
You can join members of the choir at a viewing party scheduled to take place at Fairmont Auditorium December 6, at 7 p.m. Admission is free and tickets are required - for more information call 499-2647.

Who’s the lead singer. Is it Kendall Young? I think they did really well on the sing off. Wish they hadn’t gotten eliminated.

I am proud of all of you…and I’m sure my old Chorus director at Fairmont (West), Gene Seeburger, would be also. I look forward to seeing and hearing you perform. You’ve worked very hard, relish in your excellence!
