Brigade on the Range (BotR) 2026 Rally – Itinerary

Notes:

1. Headquarters is in the Regency Room, southwest corner of building

2. “Dance card” means round-robin quartet singing. Mark off your completions/ write in the name from the bank once you’ve sung a full brigade song in a quartet. After your first completion, see registration for 2nd dance card. Brigade songs from previous years may count; however, it is strongly encouraged that you sing this year’s package to prep for the contest and public show.

3. Quartet rehearsals are shorter this year. (Rationale: there is not much distance to travel around this hotel.) Consider preparing your interpretation ideas ahead of time and being ready to bring them to the quartet rehearsals.
