1 Dear Directors, April 13, 2015 Thank you for participating in the 2015 Vancouver Kiwanis Choral Festival. This year we heard 58 choirs and approximately 2,000 students during four days of performances and clinics. We would like to thank our hosts at Bethany Baptist Church in Richmond. Plenty of parking, good acoustics and a gym for storage, convenient for the singers. Special thanks goes to the Kiwanis Club of Vancouver and the Board of Directors. Our Executive Director, Lynn van Zanten, works tirelessly on all four of the Vancouver Kiwanis Music Festivals, all year long, to ensure everything goes smoothly and that we have enough funding to offer recordings, the very best adjudicators, and a large venue. Thank you to our generous donors of choral risers: Our Lady of Mercy School, New West Secondary School/Massey Theatre and the Delta Choral Society. Our student volunteers were once again a fantastic help. They set up the risers, kept the groups on schedule, handled the paperwork, and were wonderful Hosts. We cannot run the festival without their help! Our three adjudicators, Adam Con, Dominic Gregorio and Andrea Ramsey enjoyed working with each ensemble. Their energy and enthusiasm were greatly appreciated during the long festival days.

2 We wish you all the best with your future musical endeavours and we hope to see you at the 2016 Kiwanis Choral Festival, April 7 th - 9th. Yours truly, Linda Prai Festival Administrator Kelly Proznick Festival Coordinator
