    Spring 2009 Illinois District Website http://www.illinoisdistrict.org IDAH 2009 ! BACK WITH A BANG ! by Bob Squires for the IDAH Team After an absence of a year, IDAH, the Illinois District Academy of Harmony, returned to the Barbershop scene and into the mainstream of district activities once again. Consisting of a slightly revised format, a big move from Peoria to Bloomington and a unique venue, over 150 men were treated to 12 Mike Isely photo hours of being immersed in “Hot Barbershop.” IDAH 2009 was held at the Second Presbyterian Church in Bloom- ington, which is the home to one of our International chorus representatives in Anaheim, the Bloomington Sound of Illinois Chorus. SOI member, Greg Gray was the on-site mastermind whose tireless efforts made the move to Bloomington seamless. Greg’s team of Bloomington members provided as- sistance with transportation, riser hauling and the handling of all of the de- tail work. Designed to be a one-day event, IDAH registrations began early on Saturday morning followed by the day’s first general session of announce- ments, orientation and vocal warm-ups by Society music specialist, Jim De- Busman. Two songs were taught to those assembled by the Lunch Break quar- tet, 13th place semi-finalists in Nashville last year. All IDAH photos, Lunch Break was also part except those as noted, of an all-star team of by Dave Martin coaches who worked with To see the entire quartets and choruses dur- IDAH 2009 photo album, go to http://illinoisdistrict.smugmug.com ing the day.
