Concert and Commons

President's Club gathering celebrates fruits of giving to Bethel.

Summer 2009

Donor members of the President’s Club gathered along with other Bethel donors on May 9 for the annual Classics in the Great Hall, this year called “Serenade to Spring.” Following the concert, nearly 350 donors enjoyed a dessert reception in the new David E. and Mary Jo Monson Dining Center, along with President Jay and Barb Barnes. For many, this event marked the first opportunity to tour Brushaber Commons, as well as chat with Jay and Barb about what’s ahead for Bethel.

“The night provided Bethel friends a chance to fellowship, enjoy good music, and see firsthand—through an excellent performance by Bethel’s student musicians and the experience of Brushaber Commons—how their commitment and support is helping Bethel fulfill its mission,” says Bruce Anderson, vice president for development.
