It is great to catch up on everyone’s news and get insights in our alumnae’s past experiences too!
If any current Chorus members also wish to attend these events, they are welcome. Just email Selena (not text, FB or Messenger) to let you know whether you’d like to come by the Wednesday before the event and she’ll add you to the invite (if she hasn’t already 😊).
Faultline are supporters of the NZ Young Singers in Harmony Trust (YSIH NZ). See below for their latest:
2025 NZ Young Singers in Harmony Trust (YSIH) Convention, Lower Hutt Town Hall, Wednesday 17 and Thursday 18 September 2025 – Volunteers needed (Door, Raffle/Donations for Day 1 Quartet Contest (9am – 4.30pm), Day 2 Chorus Contest (similar time) and Parade of Champions concert Day 2 evening 6.00pm – 9.30pm
We’re now only 6 weeks away from the national 2025 YSIH Convention! All the regional contests in Wellington, Waikato and Auckland have been held. We have a strong number of 37 quartets and 18 regional chorus competitors who have met the entry criteria, which is exciting! Brenda Leasi from Pacific Connection is the 2025 YSIH Convention Coordinator.
We’d be grateful for any Faultliners past or present who can offer to assist as volunteers this year, as most BHNZ chorus members will be at the BHNZ Convention in Christchurch or taking a break after attending the BHS International in Denver, Colorado in July.
Two Faultline Alumnae have kindly offered to assist us so far on the 2025 YSIH Convention registration or raffle desk – Jane Riley and Judy Wilton! Shelley Bascand from Faultline Chorus is kindly helping us with Traffic Pattern run sheets. Thank you to these two awesome wāhine who will be great in these roles, to support Erin Donohue, our YSIH Wellington regional representative and On the Ground Coordinator at Convention. If you missed out helping in 2024, don’t miss out supporting some of YSIH’s top quartet and chorus rangatahi barbershoppers this year! Contact Selena if you are interested. All volunteers will receive an online pre-Convention briefing in 2025, including a health and safety induction.
Sponsorship opportunities
If you know of any businesses, groups or individuals that might be open to provide sponsorship, email Selena for more details. We will be putting up sponsorship details on 2 x 75” screens above the risers throughout the Convention and giving sponsors a free double pass to the evening Parade of Champions concert the evening of 18 September 2025.
Donations, bequests
If you know of any businesses, groups or individuals that might be open to provide a donation to assist with the 2025 YSIH Convention costs and help the NZ YSIH Trust create a sustainable future, contact Selena Bernath, NZ YSIH Trust Administrator / Trustee Officers for more details.
The Trust appreciates the support of Faultliners past and present, so that we can create a great experience for our rangatahi barbershoppers from around Aotearoa in 2025!
