On Oct. 25, nine ACGC vocalists traveled to Atlantic High School to audition for spots in the 2025 Iowa All State Music Festival.

ACGC Vocal Director Kelsey Dinkla shared her pride in the hard work the students did to prepare and perform.

“Allison Drake earned her very first soprano recall. Rohnin Grasty earned a recall and was selected as a bass alternate. This is his second year earning All State honors. Carter Dinkla survived another tenor recall and was selected for his second year as an All Stater. Natalie Dinkla, alto, was selected outright,” Dinkla said.

The All-State Music Festival will be held Saturday, Nov. 22 in Ames.
