The Association of Far Western District Champions (AFWDC) presents a spectacular parade of past FWD champion quartets immediately following the Friday evening Quartet Semifinal at the Fall Convention. Champion quartets of the past are invited to “strut their stuff”. Some sing only a one-song cameo while the current, active quartets will sing a full set. The show traditionally closes with our current champs singing their “swan song”.

A Friday night tradition, and one we’re sure you’ll not want to miss!
