The winner for the Outstanding Administrator Award which is presented to a school administrator who has made a significant different in music education in Saskatchewan by developing and supporting choral music within their school is Dr. Mark Anderson, Luther College High School, Regina.

The Community Service Award  recognizes the contribution of an individual or group to the cultural life of Sasktchewan through involvement in the development of choral music in their community.  The recipient for this year is  Corinne Groff, Regina.

The Golden Note Award

Congratulations to all the winners!  Presentations will be made to each of the recipients at a time that those that can celebrate in these awards with the winners can participate.   Due to the restrictions with COVID-19 we are working to determine how that will best work at this time!
