Competition

Competition is a major and fun part of the barbershop world that helps keep us focused on raising the bar of performance excellence.  We come together in a spirit of lighthearted competitors to see who's really got top form.  We root for each other, cheer each other on, and once the medals have been handed out, we sing and party together into the night!

Regional

Every year in March or April the Arundelair Chorus makes the trip to Ocean City, MD to compete in our regional contest. Dozens of choruses and quartets come together to sing and compete. There are a number of judging categories, and the groups bring complete and entertaining packages. The competition in 2012 is April 19 - 22.  If you're anywhere near Ocean City, MD, please come by the Convention Center at 4001 Coastal Highway and be a part of the fun!

International

Sometime in the fall the winners of all regional contests -- and a few "wildcards" -- gather at International competition. In 2012 International competition will be held in Denver, CO October 29 - November 3. You can view the complete contest on a live webcast on the Sweet Adelines International website. This is the ultimate female barbershop competition -- not to be missed!
