Andrew I've just been looking at the prices for the Pan Pacific Convention in Christchurch next year, and I'm more than a bit worried. The costs as I see them...
Its out of reach for you, this is rediculous for me. There is no way even with a chorus subsidy that I could attend on those rates! Andrew J ... From: Steve...
These costs look exactly the same as for a New Zealand Sweet Adelines convention. I hope that something less expensive can be devised, because I've been in...
