    Conventions & Contests
    ... in general ...
    The Northeastern District has Conventions in the Spring and Fall of each year.
     
    Spring Conventions & Contests

    There are five Divisions in the NED:

    • Granite and Pine
    • Mountain
    • Patriot

      Each Division has its own Chorus and Quartet contest.  
    Each year, on a rotating basis, 2 Divisions will join for a Regional Convention.  All Choruses and Quartets are invited to participate in the spring contests. The spring contests are used to qualify to sing in the Fall District Contest.

    • International Quartet Qualification (held at one of the single Division conventions)
    • Seniors Quartet contests are held in conjuction with Division Contests.
