AREA 5 CONTEST, MAY 23-25, 2025
After a highly successful, sold out show at York Woods Library Theatre in Toronto, the Accolades are now preparing for their Area 5 Contest at the end of the month. Last year they won the award for Most Improved Chorus, and they are hoping to raise their score further this year.
Meanwhile, our January Open House brought us a number of enthusiastic singers, several of whom have decided to stay on and join the chorus. We are excited to have these talented women join us and look forward to their singing with us at contest.

THANK YOU, KENNEDY ROAD CHARITABLE GAMING ASSOCIATION!
Thanks to the generous support of the Kennedy Road Charitable Gaming Association, the Toronto Accolades were able to make significant Christmas donations to several of our neighbourhood charities again this year. By volunteering at the Gaming Centre, we receive funds not only to assist our own organization but also to help out worthwhile charities such as the ones listed below.
The Toronto Accolades were able to offer cheques in the amount of $8,000 to four community charities. We contributed to NeighbourLink North York in the establishment of their second food hub in our community. We gave to North York Harvest Food Bank, which is in great need of assistance as all food banks have seen demand almost double over the past few years. We were also happy to be able to present a cheque to the Salvation Army, Toronto Division, and to the North York Women's Shelter, both of which do such worthwhile work within the community.
In April, 2025, The Kennedy Road Gaming Centre held a Volunteer Appreciation Event which was enjoyed by several of our chorus members, seen in the photo below.
