Using this website
This page deals with questions about the various "operating aspects" of this website that might be confusing, such as reserving a hotel room, registering your quartet, AETs, photos, program advertising. If you can't find what you need, try the SEARCH box to find all references to a topic as well.
Do competing quartets and choruses still register with (and pay!) International?
Absolutely! The path to competition for a chorus or quartet begins by registering with International. Please do that before you proceed to registering your quartet or chorus on this site.
What if my chorus or quartet wants to do video evaluation...do I still have to register?
Yup! Video evaluations are basically the same as "in person" competition, except the group in question doesn't have to be in Spokane. For more information on video evaluations, click here.
Do I reserve my hotel room through my chapter?
No, all convention attendees (competing, non-competing, quartet, chorus, CAL, or non-member) staying in the regional block of rooms will reserve hotel rooms themselves.
What if I don't want to stay in the regional hotels?
Region 13 has contracted with two hotels: DoubleTree and The Centennial. By guaranteeing we will fill the rooms we committed to five years ago, the hotels provide rehearsal and meeting spaces for us to use during the weekend, without charging us a room rental fee. In order to meet those numbers, we expect our members to make their reservations in one of our two hotels. If we fall short of our committed numbers, the region will be required to pay a penalty to the hotels, which will ultimately come back to the members in the form of higher costs for future conventions.
Do I order my AET through my chapter?
Yes, chapters will collect forms and payments from their members, then submit ONE order for AETs though this site. Watch for details from your chapter's convention chair.
CAL members are welcome to order All Events Ticket through a chorus with whom they are affiliated, whether that's with close friends, a quartet, or other association. Alternatively, you may choose to register and order your All Events Ticket through our CAL coordinator, Andren Moyer. Please contact Andren directly at andrenmoyer@gmail.com to place your order.
How do I order my official chorus contest photo?
Lilley Photography will be taking official photos again this year. Chapter Photo Chairs will collect forms and payments for official chorus photos from their members, and then bring the total chorus photo order and payment to the Thursday briefing, where they will be given to Ed Lilley.
Do I order my official quartet contest photo?
This year, quartets also are to bring your order form and payment to the briefing on Thursday, where they will be given to Ed Lilley.
How do I buy an ad or shout-out for the convention program?
Quartet, chapters, and/or individual members are able to purchase ads or shout-outs for the convention program. Deadline March 4, 2019.
