Viking Voices Take the Gold
Lakewood Choirs Hit High Notes in the Windy City

Marking a high point in our performing arts season, Lakewood High School's Elite Choir, Vox Humana journeyed to Chicago to showcase their artistry at the Heritage Festival, returning home as Gold Medal champions. A team of 17 students and 11 adults took the trip and represented at the Heritage Festival, a national band and choir competition on April 18th. They took 3 ensembles in total - VH (Concert Choir), Vagabonds (Jazz Choir), and Armonia Donna (Treble Choir). Each choir took a Gold Award - the highest rating in the competition. In addition, Vox Humana took a third place for concert choirs overall, and Armonia Donna took a second place in treble choirs. The treble choir also received a coveted invitation to participate in the 2027 Heritage Festival of Gold at Carnegie Hall in NYC. The Lakewood Choirs are growing by leaps and bounds! We are so proud of these kids, Go Vikings!
