Text Box: Singing in the Barn 2778 Mont Alto Road Chambersburg, PA 17202 717-264-2887 recorded Message Contact Us Text Box: Admission: There is no charge for admission or meals but we do depend on offerings to cover the costs of artists, food and operational expenses.   Dinner on the Grounds: We start serving at 4:30 and are committed to closing down at 6pm so that the volunteers can clean up and be able to be a part of the concerts.  We serve a meal, no charge, but again depend on the offering buckets set out at the food line. The meal consists of your choice of a sandwich; usually hotdog or BBQ, fruit, chips and a cookie. It isn't an "all you can eat" dinner buffet, but our goal is to serve each person a meal, once through the line. As you can imagine, since there are no tickets, it is difficult to know how much food to purchase. We welcome dessert donations, something easy to serve, cookies, brownies, etc. If you have a favorite that you would like to contribute, they should arrive by 4pm.   Concert: The concert starts at 6:30 with offering and then an intermission.   Seating: The barn seats 1000 people. You may want to bring along lawn chairs just in case the seats are full. If you don't need them, you can always leave them in the car. As word of Singing in the Barn has reached out to more and more people, the attendance has increased.    Reserved Seats:  Since there are no tickets sold, there are no reserved seats. The doors will be unlocked and opened at 4 o'clock the day of the concert. You may save a seat for you and your companion by placing your jacket or sweater over the back of the seat. To make it fair for everyone, we don't want ropes, tape, blankets, etc stretched over rows of seats. At 6:25 if there are guests waiting to be seated, any unoccupied seat will be offered to them. Pets: For the safety of your pet and the comfort of others, we ask that pets are not brought to concerts. Solicitation: No solicitation of handouts, posters, brochures, tracts, etc from other organizations. Barn Temperature: The Barn is not heated or air conditioned - Please dress appropriately for the weather!   Parking: In the nearby fields. Parking is limited, carpooling is welcome.
