Sorry!

I'll try harder next year!
Don't sweat it! At least y'all have some social media... we need to get more comps on board with that!

They've already been announced. Prairie swept, but I haven't heard full placements yet. CR Jeff has a Twitter account for this comp, they just aren't using it very well.

Hopefully we'll hear soon!

Y'all are good. This is probably the busiest show choir weekend, so I've been plenty busy.

Congrats to Prairie! Happy to see Muscatine place well! Congrats to all groups.

What time did finals begin here? Or asked another way, when should we expect results?

The Ambassadors are definitely excited to end their regular and local season here at Jefferson! I'm personally excited to spend the day with my Jefferson friends that I have come to know over the past couple of years. It was an honor to compete against them this season and I'm glad to be able to share the stage with them one last time. The power of show choir and the friendships it creates is truly an incredible thing

Greetings, friends and fellow directors! We are pleased to announce and invite you to the 31st Annual Jefferson Invitational at Jefferson High School in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, held this coming year on March 6th & 7th, 2015 (a week earlier than this past year). We are excited to continue offering our Jazz Choir and Concert Choir contests, an expanded solo contest, in addition to a newly updated digital audio service, including a multi-camera video recording.

Middle School Show Choirs and High School Jazz Choirs will be held on Friday, March 6th. On Saturday, March 7th, we will feature concert choirs, our solo competition, and show choirs in the following categories: Prep, 1A, 2A, 3A, and Open Class. Recent Judges Include: Allen Chapman, Peter Eklund, Gerry Kreitzer, Michelle Jenson, Kevin Chase, Ryan Person, Ray Saluka, Ann Berry, Jim Berry, Adam Peters, Brent Peterson, Lynn Rothrock, Jay Nugent, & Laurel Masse.

Registration is now open – slots are already filling up, and will continue to fill quickly, especially at the middle school level. Enclosed you will find the registration sheet; please return your registration along with payment at your earliest convenience. Once again we offer EARLY BIRD registration – a $75 discount simply for registering early! See the enclosed registration form for details!

Please contact me if you have questions about our competition. We have enjoyed some of the finest competitive groups in the Midwest over the past 30 years – we hope your talented groups can help make the 31st Annual Jefferson Invitational the best yet!
