Two Sycamor
e High School Choir students, Lauren Brazeau and Mary Flaherty, participated in the recent American Choir Directors Association (ACDA) Regional Conference. Mary and Lauren each submitted an audition recording and were competing against submissions from Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. Both students were selected to be part of the High School Honors Choir, a 100 member choir under the direction of Joe Miller from New Jersey’s Westminster Choir College, a division of Rider University’s Westminster College of the Arts. This year the ACDA Central Division held its four-day conference at the Palmer House Hilton in Chicago. Sycamore High School Choral Director Drayton Eggleson comments, “This is a very prestigious honor for Lauren and Mary! Contestants can only audition for this choir every other year, therefore it is very competitive. We are so fortunate to have two of Sycamore’s choral members be selected and participate in this event!”
