Men and women alike are on the receiving end – with moving results. The cost is $25. To order, contact Brett Fuelberth, Vocal Music Professor, at [email protected] or call 712-362-7963.

Blue Note Club adopts changes/ New Donor Board
In 2008, we inaugurated the Blue Note Club as a way of
creating a strong base of donors to start a fund for music
scholarships. The response was wonderful! We want to
see the Blue Note Club grow each year through the help
of great art supporters like you, so that the Music Depart-
ment at Iowa Lakes Community College will not only
continue, but flourish as well. With your help that can
happen!
At Iowa Lakes, we believe the greatest gift a student can
receive (besides an awesome education!) is a scholarship.
Scholarships provide tremendous opportunities and finan-
cial assistance to deserving students. Your gift to music
scholarships through the Blue Note Club will make a sig-
nificant difference in the lives of our student-musicians
and ensure that deserving students who wish to attend
Iowa Lakes are not left behind because of economic
constraints.
The Blue Note Club is comprised of four levels of sup-
port: Prodigy - donations of $249 and under; Composer -
$250-$499; Virtuoso - $500-$999; and Maestro - $1000+.
Scholarship donations to the Iowa Lakes Foundation
(Music Scholarship Fund) are tax deductible to the full
extent of the law under the Internal Revenue code. Please
contact Tony Condon at [email protected] or
1-800-242-5106 Ext. 4491 or call 712-362-0491 for more
information.
Show your support for our talented music students at the next
Coffee House on Tuesday, February 10 at 7:00 p.m. Enjoy
abundant talent, hot coffee or apple cider and homemade
treats! It is your chance to get a sneak preview of our very
own Singing Valentines!
