Are you new to NxNW Region #13? Join other new Sweet Adelines at the First Timers Class to learn about the region and weekend competition and convention activities!
You can sign up ahead of time to receive a welcome booklet - click on the First Timers Class sign up link to the left of the photo.
Become more comfortable with our contest by walking through the traffic pattern and onto the competition stage at the Convention Center. You will get a view from “your riser spot” on stage and visualize the supportive and encouraging judges and audience. We will do our best to answer your questions and concerns to further help you prepare for the weekend.
Faculty for the First Timers Class are Patty Martin, Region Events Coordinator, and Sally Ryerson, Region Team Coordinator. This class will begin immediately following the education class at 9:45 a.m., and it will conclude after your stage visit at 11:00 a.m., Friday, April 24. You will have plenty of time after the class to pick up a quick snack and head to the quartet competition. See you there!
