We had a few quiet weeks after convention and the rest was good. Now we are gearing up for busy times again. This weekend we spent in a motel in Appleton while Dale had Land Of Lakes district competition. Their group did decently, considering their director is very new and has had no barbershop background. They placed 7th out of 17 chorus'. Not the first place like last year but they had positive feedback from all the judges on their potential. We ran into one of the friends at the competion that we never met before. Some of you might recognize him.(See picture) Cleon's group took champion and are going to international competition. They are one of the top groups in the nation, so it wasn't a shock that they qualified for internationals.
