Congratulations to our very own quartet, Seven Hills Four (left to right: Paul Lapenas, Don Hewey, Joe McGinn, Brian O'Leary) for being awarded "Most Improved Quartet" in the Patriot Division in last weekend's NED contest (October 29, 30, 2021). We've also been awarded this honor five previous times.
Please "zoom in" on the trophy picture and read the names noted in RED. Some are still current and active members and all were members of Division Champion Quartets.
Congratulations to them all.
Congratulations to our Director, Mark Goodney recipient of the Barbershopper of the Year Award and Derek Wolosz recipient of the Joe Roughan Award for 2021.
The Barbershopper of the Year Award is given to the member whose contributions to the Chapter have brought him distinction and have significant benefit to the chorus.
The Joe Roughan Award is symbolized by a hand-crafted model light-house in a glass case with a plaque bearing the name of that year's recipient. It is given to that member whose presence can "light up the room".
There is no question that both of these men were more than deserving of these awards. Don Hayes (right) presented the BOTY Award to Mark (left) and Mark (right) presented the Joe Roughan Award to Derek (left).
