CCCS History
The CCCS began as a dream of Dr. and Mrs. J. Earl Williams, longtime residents of Evans, Georgia. Earl and Kathy loved music, sang in their local church choir, and wanted to see a community group formed that would provide an excellent musical experience. Dr. Williams contacted Jacques M. Kearns to assist in the formation of the choir shortly after Rev. Kearns' retirement from full-time music ministry. After several weeks of discussion and promotion, the first “get acquainted – what do you think” rehearsal was held at the First Baptist Church of Evans on March 4, 1997. There were more than 25 singers in attendance at the first rehearsal.
