Today, Region 15 is 18 choruses strong, with dozens of affiliated quartets. Back in 2014, the Sweet Adelines International regional boundaries were adjusted, and Greater NY/NJ Region 15 welcomed eight choruses from Lake Ontario Region 16: Capitaland, Carousel Harmony*, City of the Hills, River Valley*, Saratoga Soundtrack, Seneca Soundwaves*, Seven Valley*, Spirit of Syracuse. Within these champion recaps, we are pleased to include applicable chorus/quartet results from their Region 16 days, in order to capture and celebrate the complete and proud history of all of our chapters.

*This chorus has since disbanded
