Our organization is Sweet Adelines International. We have approximately 30,000 members in most of the fifty United States, as well as in Australia, Canada, England, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Japan, New Zealand, Scotland, Sweden and the Netherlands. There are also prospective choruses in Denmark, Greece and United Arab Emirates. There are even Young Women In Harmony choruses for girls. Our international headquarters are located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

We belong to North Pacific Region 13. This includes Washington, Alaska and Northern Idaho. Regional contest is held each year in the spring, with winning choruses and quartets going on to compete at international contest in the fall.

The Kitsap Pines Chorus was founded in 1972 and has been performing continuously since that time. We perform at many community events, senior centers, nursing homes, private functions, veteran's services, schools and hospitals. We produce a show every year or so, and award a yearly scholarship to a graduating high school student. We enjoy our annual chorus retreat and holiday parties. Our two "open mic" nights each year are a favorite activity.

We love to sing and we love each other. Ladies who enjoy singing are always welcome to come visit our rehearsals to learn more about our chorus. This chorus is our opportunity to sing, make friends, perform, sparkle and shine. Come visit!
