About
The District Seniors Quartet Contest usually takes place in the fall, and is often combined with the International Qualifier.
At contest time, all four singers must be members in good standing of both the Barbershop Harmony Society and the Far Western District, and the quartet name and personnel registered with the Society.
In addition, quartets in the Seniors category must consist of four singers at least 55 years old, with a combined total of at least 240 years of age.
