| DIRECTOR KAY SEYMOUR |
| Kay's first experience with Sweet Adelines was in 1962 when she joined a chapter in Lima, Ohio. In 1969, she and her family moved to Dayton and she began singing with Gem City Chorus. With the encouragement of Gem City's director Jean Barford, she grew with the chorus and eventually became an Assistant Director. Kay got to use her talents as a Assistant Director when Jean became ill and she had to step in to direct Gem City at the International Chorus Final in Las Vegas where they placed 5th. Recently, Kay has been the Assistant Director of Velvet Hills Chorus in Colorado as well a member of the SAI quartet Studio 4. Kay has earned many, many medals in her SAI career including five 1st & 2nd place medals and one 3rd & 4th place medal. Kay is the proud mother of two grown daughters. Her eldest daughter lives in Queens, New York and sings with the Greater Nassau chorus. Her youngest daughter lives in Denver, Colorado and is expecting Kay's first grandchild this June. Kay has been an active SAI member for 46 years as Assistant and Associate Director of three Regional and International Gold medal choruses.
