All selections from New Harp of Columbia, Restored Edition, 2001.
The singing was quite an extraordinary one, with many visiting singers from Indiana, Kentucky, the Carolinas, Georgia, and Alabama - in addition to the many singers from Tennessee!
Bruce Wheeler once again was the moderator. Tina Becker noted: Many thanks to Ann Strange and Eddie Mash for organizing it, and to Virginia Douglas and Robin Goddard for organizing the Dinner On The Grounds.
Before dinner Robin Goddard counted 65 singers and 17 observers/visitors. After dinner she counted 78 singers and 32 visitors who were also singing at times. So the count is approximately 70–80 singers and 20–30 observers during the day.
