Fusion had a fabulous day on Saturday at the Mid Winter Dance in the Te Kowhai Hall. It was a Creative Memories event with all proceeds going to the support of people with Dementia and their families. Reminisce are such lovely friends and a joy to sing with. This year we were joined by the Drifters Rock n' Roll dancers...a blur of colour as they twisted and turned around the dance floor. So much laughter ,love and dance in the room with amazing support from so many. Fantastic volunteers.

Prior to Fusion we sang as a quartet called Smooth Talk for about 8 years. Last weekend we had a Reunion but unfortunately Debbie couldn’t join us due to sickness but she was very clever and added herself into the photo. Such an everlasting friendship. Many of the older members of the Waikato Rivertones will remember us!

Fusion entertained at the annual Creative Memories Summer Fundraising Concert at The Glades. Joining with the wonderful band, Reminisce and many other great singers and musicians to raise funds for Creative Memories clients. It was such a lovely day and we raised approx $4000. Great sponsorship and support from so many companies makes it possible. The invaluable kindness of so many volunteers keep the day running smoothly."Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much".This is an annual event. Next year it will be on March 1st. Put it in your diary now! Thank you to all involved.

Another day of singing Christmas songs! To see the residents of the Summerset Memory Care Unit, laughing, dancing and singing with such joy was special. Then it was off to an Awatere Christmas luncheon to meet Santa then sing favourite Christmas melodies to this lovely group. The staff if all of these places are so caring giving and kind to the residents. Beautiful to see.

Fusion spent this morning singing in the Children's wards in Waikato Hospital.It is always so moving to see children in hospital at Christmas time particularly.
Their smiles and dancing made it all worthwhile.

Hi from Fusion. With me (Janice) overseas and other things, all 3 of us finally got back to the Hospital today to sing to bring good cheer to all. So great to be back receiving the odd thumbs up and lovely comments to us which reminds us why we do this. We sang a few Christmas songs and a lot of new upbeat songs. Remember us for 2024 for any Celebrations you may have. We love to bring the joy from song to all! Merry Xmas!!!

We had a fantastic time at the Mid-Winter Dance. The band , Reminisce were brilliant. Everyone loved their choice of songs and their sound was fabulous. The hall was packed and everyone was in high spirits. At times the dance floor was not big enough! Fusion sang a few numbers with the band. There was only Sheree and I there, but Rex became the third member of the trio. We missed you Janice.. it will be lovely to sing together again soon.
Gary played thr spoons again..such a great addition to the band. Lovely to see a few Rivertones there too. Thank you to all the amazing volunteers who helped the day run smoothly. Thanks also to Craigs Investments for there generous donation for the catering. See you next year!
