Groups are advised to arrive as early as possible. Check with your Regional Director to see how early the hall will be available. We do not want to take even one phone call from groups complaining about their spot in the program and trying to get it changed. The host group may also act as Masters of Ceremony, introducing each group, filling in time when necessary and leading the closing song. Judges We usually have a panel of three or more local celebrities from the music business, media and educational fields who are qualified to evaluate vocal music with great expertise.
Most judges volunteer their services.
Good performance does not necessarily mean flashy costumes and tricky choreography. It simply refers to the degree in which the audience was entertained. Judges are encouraged to jot down notes that will help to improve the groups performance and to give an overall score to assist in the final placement, as opposed to scoring every little thing a group does or does not do. Each group will receive a copy of the judges' comments pertaining to their group. Each group is allowed one complimentary ticket only for a guest.
