Adjudicator Report

Adjudicator Chair is Mitch Piersma

September 10, 2026

Hi Everyone-

After sending out contracts on May 1st, most judging assignments are filled.  I am still in need of a few judges for each festival other than the spring MS Solo and Ensemble, which should be good to go unless the numbers are different from last year.  There may be a scramble for some judges for our Band and Orchestra Festivals when we get more sites (and please host if you can!) as the system does not allow me to hire judges unless we have a bonafide site for a festival.  However, for this time of year, I think we are in good shape.

As always, if you have input on a judge or a recommendation for one you'd like to see in DX, please let me know.

Sincerely,

Mitch Piersma
