Honors Choir Alumni
2008 summer marked the 35th Anniversary of the South Dakota Honor Choir, and a Reunion Choir celebrated that milestone. All former SD Honor Choir members from 1974-2007 were invited to participate in the 35th Reunion Choir and performed 4 selections in addition to 2 combined numbers with the 2008 SD High School Honor Choir. The Reunion Choir was under the direction of Dr. Tim Peter, professor of music at Luther College and rehearsed on the campus of Augustana College, with the final concert in the Great Hall of the Washington Pavilion located in downtown Sioux Falls.
2008 was only the latest reunion choir. The complete list includes:
| 1983 | 10 yr | Alice T. Larson | Black Hills State University |
| 1993 | 20 yr | Dr. René Clausen | Black Hills State University |
| 1998 | 25 yr | Dr. Paul Torkelson | Augustana College |
| 2003 | 30 yr | Dr. Edith Copley | South Dakota State University |
| 2008 | 35 yr | Dr. Tim Peter | Augustana College |
Please update your contact information in the Honor Choir Alumni database even if you were unable to attend the 35th Reunion!! This will assist us in contacting you for future reunion events. Please list your most “permanent” information by which you would most likely be reached within the next 5 years. (If we continue the tradition of putting together a Reunion Choir every 5 years, then our 40th Honor Choir Reunion will be scheduled for the summer of 2013!)
