Our program is noted for its unique musical opportunities, including performing at Six Flags Music in the Parks, the Chesterton High School Madrigal Dinner, and being the home of Northwest Indiana’s only competitive high school show choirs, the Drifters and Sandpipers. Excellence in traditional and commercial choral music have been hallmarks of our program since its inception. These traditions have been established through the hard work and dedication of four decades of student members, and are carried on by the current Chesterton choral groups.

A student’s involvement in a musical ensemble provides the perfect vehicle for the development of:
greater interpersonal communication skills,
enhanced time management and study habits
goal-setting and problem-solving techniques
and skills in collaborating effectively with individuals and large groups in a variety of situations.
In turn, the development of these characteristics leads to:
greater poise
confidence
and self-esteem on the part of our individual members.
In addition, the Chesterton Choral Music Programs provide the Duneland community with strong musical performances throughout the year which enrich the artistic lives of area residents, and offers supporters the opportunity to be a part of this dynamic program by supporting its events and performances each year.
