Men's Day Out

Men's Day Out

Men's Day Out at Baylor was organized in the very early 2000's by Jeff Rice at Midway High School, Florence Scattergood who was then director of choirs at Waco High School and Randall Bradley. The single goal of the event was and has remained encouraging young men in their choral music endeavors. The event has evolved through the years to include several hundred students instead of the much smaller groups of the early years, and it has reached out into the DFW area and into northern Houston. The day is simple, we sing, eat, tell stories, and celebrate singing together with other young men.
