2023 SAY Recipient

2022 SAY Recipient
Cheri Danner
Every year, Virginia Coast Chorus recognizes and celebrates the contributions of one of their own chorus members (Active or Associate) by presenting the Sweet Adeline of the Year Award. The criteria for the award is simple: A member who has impacted the chorus the most by either their leadership, contributions, participation, and/or dedication to the chorus over the past fiscal year, to include those who work behind the scenes, and recognizing those “unsung heroes” is what the SAY award is all about. Nominations for the award are gathered from the chorus, and the SAY's from the past five (5) years meet to choose the recipient. Past SAY's are eligible for nomination, after a 5-year period.
