Family Reunion Afterglow


To celebrate being all together again, an All-Region Family Reunion Afterglow will be held at the Holiday Inn Convention Centre on Saturday night. Light hors d’oeuvres will be served and there will be a cash bar. You can get gussied up if you choose, come in your chorus colours or wear what you are most comfortable in!!


What’s an afterglow without singing! We’ll start with our winning quartet, chorus division winners and our chorus champions and, time permitting, follow with an open mic for any quartet or chorus that wants to sing (non competing groups too!)!


This is not meant to replace your dinner!!! The afterglow will start around 8:00 pm, allowing for some down time and a chance to get some dinner on your own. Please understand that absolutely no alcoholic beverages are allowed in the event room or any public areas of the hotel (front lobby, Grand Foyer or Atrium) due to Canadian Liquor Laws. We may not bring our own snacks or non-alcoholic beverages in the event room either as per hotel rules! 


It’s going to be a blast!! Come join the fun!!

Webcast


We are excited to webcast our event from our brand new venue at the FirstOntario Performing Arts Center (PAC). The site for registration is being set up as we speak and more details, including a link, will come your way soon!


$30 CAD to register - one price, two great contests - quartets on Friday and choruses on Saturday! JD Crowe will anchor and she will be joined by a few guest hosts throughout the weekend!!


Stand by for more!!!
