You may have heard about this already, but Fort Wayne's own Voices of Unity choir went to China to compete in the World Choir Games and won gold!
The way the medal system works in the World Choir Games is that competitors must get a certain amount of points to receive either a Bronze, Silver, or Gold Medal. In other words, it is possible that more than one group might win a gold medal, and it is also possible that no medals will be given at all! This method of awarding medals rewards groups who work hard and perform to the best of their abilities.
There is also a Grand Champion, which rewards the best in each category with the title. Voices of Unity won the Grand Champion title in the Gospel/Spiritual category. They also earned a gold medal in the category of Popular Choral Music.

Congratulations, Voices of Unity!
