The premier men’s singing chorus from Dallas known as the Turtle Creek Chorale has announced its annual Bridge Builder Award winners. “The University of Texas at Dallas / Callier Center for Communication Disorders is receiving the Organization Bridge Builder Award. The UTD/ Callier Center has emerged over the past forty years as a leading resource in local, state, national and international collaborative efforts addressing the needs of children and adults with communication disorders. In a special collaboration, the Turtle Creek Chorale featured the Callier Center Choir during the televised 2003 Holiday concert. Also, the first Cochlear Implant Choir in the nation is rehearsing for a debut in the near future as a result of the TCC ? Callier collaborative efforts.”
I attended Callier three times a week for at least a year. My mom drove me from Fort Worth to Dallas (60 miles) so I could get the training I needed to communicate. Congratulations to Callier on a well-deserved award.
