Western high school musicians win continued scholarships
Western High School music students who won scholarships to Idyllwild Arts Foundation in California received continued funding for next year. Margery Dickinson, choral music teacher, notes the foundation will cover six scholarships, with previous funds raised through chocolate sales supporting the program. Readies for next year include Marcell Bustos, Bill McMillan, Marty Heim, Norma Bunker, and Lynn Dutson. The group will perform Verde's Requiem in Los Angeles on April 10 with Las Vegans joining the chorus. Next year’s awards emphasize musicianship, campership, and voice contributions.
