The Sierra Gold Chorus, the Auburn Chapter of Sweet Adelines International, has a membership of over 50 women from Nevada City to Sacramento, including Placerville and also as far away as Reno, Nevada. They welcome any woman of average singing ability, with or without vocal training.

Ron Black became the director of Sierra Gold Chorus in June 2013, leading the chorus to perform as a “triple winner” at the 2014 Regional Competition in Reno last April. Along with scoring the Most Improved Chorus, they also received the third place medal in their division, and won a trophy for the chorus with the largest increase in membership for the current year.
