Out of an abundance of caution, Kiwanis Festival Stratford [KFS] – the oldest Festival in Stratford – will again offer adjudication via recorded performance in 2022.   Please refer to How to make a video submission for guidelines. Participants still benefit from the experience of being evaluated against their peers; be considered for the Provincials regardless of what happens with vaccination and COVID rates; and receive assessments from pan-Canadian adjudicators whose travel requirements are beyond the scope of this festival in the traditional format.  We are adding back all classes for bands, choirs and ensembles as well as the presentation of trophies for the first time since 2019.   Further, we are planning to assist our entrants by offering recording/uploading services at Avondale Church  (or mobile services for large groups i.e. we come to you) prior to the entry deadline of April 11.  Thanks to benefactor David Beattie for supporting this initiative.
