0.2. "Dad sits at home all day while
I'm at work. I'm afraid that he's just
wasting away. He can't do the things
he used to do and his friends are gone,
but he'd never go to a nursing home.
What can I do?"
For less than the cost of
the nursing home, your dad
can live with friends his age
at Alpine Way. Activities will
keep him busy and happy. He
can go for van rides, enjoy
events like Music in the Park
and Lion's Club Iheatre, go
fishing, or stay in to play cards

and shoot the breeze about the good old days. All activities are
optional, so if he'd like some quiet time, he has his own private
apartment for relaxation.
If someone you know is stuck at home, come and tour Alpine Way.
We'd love to treat you to lunch, show you our lovely apartments,
and answer all your questions.

A year later, Boers suggested Blegen ap-
ply to the UW's doctorate program for con-
ducting.
Members of the chorale wrote letters rec-
ommending Blegen for the spot, and early
this year, he spent two days at the univer-
sity auditioning with 29 other candidates
for the six doctoral positions available at
the school.
This month, Blegen learned that he had
been accepted to the program with a schol-
arship.
"It's not just for me," he said. "It's also a
lot of visibility for Anna's Bay Chorale."
As part of his doctorate, the Anna's Bay
Chorale will perform at the university
sometime in the next two years under Ble-
gen's direction, he said.
Blegen said he is also excited to introduce
his son, August, who will soon celebrate his
first birthday, to the UW's music program
at a young age.

"We're still going to continue to fund-
raise because we have no guarantee we'll
get the grant," she said.
