I hope you are all looking forward to The Barbershop Reunion of Friends, otherwise known as the Evergreen District Barbershop Chorus and Quartet Contest to be held in Federal Way on Friday and Saturday, October 21st & 22nd. Your chorus and/ or quartet will have the opportunity to sing at the fabulous Federal Way Performing Arts and Events Center located just off I-5, a short distance from Sea-Tac airport. The contest will be all-inclusive, with male and female choruses and quartets, and mixed choruses and quartets. We may be able to expand to include VLQ’s. This will be a wonderful opportunity to hear them all and to ring a few chords with your friends from throughout the district. Harmony Platoon will begin on Thursday evening, October 21.
