The group began as a women’s organization back in 1967. One of the

founding members directed the group then called “The Mothers Singers” as

part of the South Euclid-Lyndhurst Welcome Wagon. When the South

Euclid-Lyndhurst Recreation Department stepped in to help defray expenses,

the name “The SELREC Singers” was born.

Bringing good music to our community has always been an important part of

the Singers’ mission. Our “Singout” schedule has taken us from retirement

communities across Ohio to the Allen Theater in Downtown Cleveland ,

where we were selected to perform for the grand opening celebration of the

Idea Center at Playhouse Square. Our performance venues have included

weddings, luncheons, dinners, awards ceremonies, meetings, country club

events, and summer concert series. Our spring season culminates each year

with a “June Extravaganza”…a theme-based show performed at the Brush

Performing Arts Center for nearly one-thousand people. Past themes have

included “Singin’ in Sin City”, “Hollywood”, “School Daze”, “Camp

Weewannasing” and “The Winner Is…” featuring award-winning songs from

television, Broadway and the movies. The June show always includes

elaborate sets, creative costumes and show-stopping choreography.
