Viterbo University will recognize the volunteer accomplishments of 47 students from nine different high schools Monday, April 27, 7-8 p.m. at the 19th Annual Volunteer Recognition ceremony  held in the Fine Arts Center. This tradition was initiated by the late Fr. Tom O’Neill as a means to encourage and acknowledge the volunteer accomplishment of young men and women who are often unrecognized for their service.

The Viterbo University Concert Choir and 9th Street Singers will present their final concert of the year at 3 p.m. Saturday, May 2 at St. Paul Lutheran’s Church, located at 420 West Avenue, La Crosse.
