Calling all creative types in Region 3!

Midwest Harmony Region 3 needs a new logo, and you can help!

Share your ideas and skills by entering our LOGO CONTEST!

We need a colorful, snappy logo design that will look good on our website, along with all the social media platforms used by the Regional Marketing Team. Our new logo will also be featured on all sorts of regional items, such as T shirts, lanyards, etc., and on the Sweet Adelines International website.

Here are the RULES:

*Entry open to any member of Region 3 Sweet Adelines, including CAL members

Region 3 Directors and Assistants had a great time at the Director and Assistant Director Retreat with Rob Mance in East Peoria Nov. 20th, 2022, hosted by Heart of Illinois Chorus. 15 Directors and Assistants attended, had a great time, and learned lots!

Congratulations to Joan Boutilier, recipient of the 2022 Sweet Adelines International President’s Lifetime Achievement Award. As International President from 2020-2022, Joan led the organization through the unimaginable challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. Current International President Thérèse Antonini writes of Joan’s presidency, “You stayed true through every challenge you faced, providing inspiration and encouragement to an entire organization trying to find its new way. It is an achievement and a legacy that will never be forgotten.” In addition, Joan is an International Quartet Champion, singing tenor with The Four Bettys (2008).
