Could not access the livestream. Any suggestions?? Bummed. Paid the $5 for high school access. Is it not a typical livestream and they send it later? After everyone has competed?
I ahd a similar issue initially and had to access the email I was sent. I then loaded the link opened when I clicked it. It immediately gave me the option to "Start Watching". Hope this helps. If you are using the link above, you might need to scroll down to find the active stream.
Best Soloists will be given a scholarship to the UNL show choir camp over the summer
The winners of these awards are:
Catharina(Cat) Scott "Eagle Express"
Isaiah Mo? SF Jefferson "Legacy"
Brock is totally right - it's no different than paying for a ticket to watch the groups in person. Let's not forget that it also costs money, time, and resources to actually put *on* a live stream, and that has to be accounted for somewhere.
It is such a shame that I could not attend this comp in person this year. All of the groups are top notch, that being said. After watching all groups today, here are my daytimes predictions.
Mixed:
5RU- Harrisburg "Eclipse"
4RU- Sioux Falls Jefferson "Legacy"
3RU- North St. Paul "Northern Lights"
2RU- Sioux Falls O'Gorman "Ovation!"
1RU- Sioux Falls Roosevelt "Executive Suite"
GC-Aberdeen "Eagle Express"
