I'm in the car with friends on the way home from bridesmaid dress shopping and my cell phone rings. I look down and see that its the lovely Ms. Sarah Lynn and answer the phone with great excitement. You see, its the weekend of SAI Region 16's contest. And this is the first year that my former chorus, Saratoga Soundtrack and the fantastic Ms Sarah, are competing.
Me: Hellooooo.
Sarah: Hello Ms Alexis.
Me: Hello Princess Sarah.
Sarah: Guess what's around my neck?
Me: Is it a medal?!
Sarah: Yup. Guess what color it is?
Me: Is it GOLD?!!?!!
Sarah: Yes!!
Me: Ahhhhhhh!
Saratoga Soundtrack won Divsion A their first time out with a 544! Now for those who don't know, we Sweet Ad's have small (15-30 women) and midsized (31-60 women) divisions within our regional contests in addition to our overall rankings. There is also a special contest for the top five in each of those divisions across the international organization called the Harmony Classic. But what is most important and impressive in this story is that the little chorus that could, Saratoga Soundtrack, took home the gold with 22 singers onstage the very first time they ever competed - Brava!
