History and Achievements.

The Club was formed in April 1986, and the Committee was formed in the following year February 1987. There was no original name for the first six months, thereafter it became Thameside Ladies Barbershop Chorus. In this year 2008 the name was changed to Thameside Harmony Chorus. One member who joined in the original year is still singing with us, and two have just recently retired from the Chorus.
