AREA FIVE CONTEST AND CONVENTION, 2024
It was an exciting day for the Accolades at this year's Area 5 Contest. The chorus improved its score over last year by 46 points to win the Most Improved Chorus Award with its "Sunshine" song package. And, although we didn't qualify for Internationals this year, we received the Audrey Borsos Memorial Award for the chorus with the highest non-qualifying score.
In the evening, we changed from rays of sunshine to puppy dogs, as we got into costume to represent our movie theme of "101 Dalmations" at dinner and Moonglow. The audience enjoyed our rendition of "Cruella de Vil", watching us change from scared puppies to vengeful ones, capturing our director, Alana/Cruella, at the end of the song. At the end of the evening, we even won a couple of goodie baskets for our awesome table centrepieces, put together by Vimi.
