1 Dr. James Main, Director HERITAGE SINGER TOUR MANC ZONE Singing for God and country is the main goal of the Heritage Singers as they travel across Kansas and the neighboring states representing the college. The Heritage Singers, the official college choir, is a forty-four voice choir, under the able direction of Dr. James Main. Member- ship in the choir is chosen by audition. Singing for various banquets, clubs, and civic organizations has kept members of the Heritage Singers busy. During spring vaca- tion, the choir takes an extended tour to churches all across the educational zone. Incidents such as a jolting 2500 mile bus ride, new friends, delicious food, friendly churches, and spirit-filled services are in- cluded in the never-to-be forgotten week of spring tour. Besides representing the college, the Heritage Singers are truly ambassadors of God spreading the Word by singing His praises. Surrounded by united fervent prayer for God's blessing and presence, in each service God is reflected on the shining faces of a grateful choir and a director who is not ashamed to show that f'It's Real.
