The Indi-Anna Chorus, a chapter of Sweet Adelines International, was chartered in 1974, an outgrowth of a group of women who liked to sing and originally called themselves the "Indiana Good Time Singers."
The chorus won fifth place in Region #18 in 1981 at Youngstown, Ohio under the direction of Mary Lou McKinney. In Region #19 the chorus won third place Small Chorus Award in 1996 and again in 1997. In 1998 the chorus won first place Small Chorus Trophy and in 1999, third place Small Chorus Award under the direction of Vicky Westley.
The chorus has varied in size with originally 20 singers, to a chorus of 44. Current membership is 24. Past and current directors of our chorus have been JoAnne Love, Joe McWilliams, Mary Lou McKinney, Mary Sue Wade, Vicky Westley, Mary Jane Gatti, and back again for a second stint, Mary Lou McKinney.
The Indi-Annas offers entertainment as a chorus, ensemble, or quartet. We love to do what we do best--sing! We can provide a special musical touch to holiday gatherings or parties. Our programs can be custom-tailored to fit most any theme and budget. We offer singing telegrams for birthdays, anniversaries or other special occasions.
