50 Year NDSCS Wildcat Singers Reunion Celebration - 1970-2020
We invite all the NDSSS/NDSCS Wildcat Singers alumni to come back during the 2020 NDSCS Homecoming to enjoy the Wildcat Singers reunion experience. We have social events, rehearsals, a banquet and an Alumni Concert planned.
The Alumni Foundation is kicking off a new scholarship for the Performing Arts Department with the Wildcat Singers 50 Yr Reunion. If you would like to donate to the NDSCS Performing Arts Endowment in honor of your previous choir, band or drama director, you can do so online or by mail. This is a great opportunity to honor an influential faculty member and financially assist a Performing Arts student.
