About
- The Mid-Atlantic District's spring Division conventions serve as both Division quartet contests and District qualifiers. Quartets placing well in the spring Division contests qualify to compete in the District contest at the fall convention.
- MAD quartets qualify for International at the spring District convention.
- This table, and the title "District Champions", refer to the "open" competition/category. At contest time, all four singers must be members in good standing of both the Barbershop Harmony Society and the Mid-Atlantic District, and the quartet name and personnel registered with the Society.
