Proceeds benefit the Local American Heart Association Chapter
Sign up to sing or come out to support local talent at the 4th Annual “Sing Your Heart Out” Karaoke Contest hosted by Carthage Area Hospital on Saturday, April 20th at the Ramada Watertown to benefit the American Heart Association.
The show begins at 7p.m. at the Ramada, 21000 State Route 3, in Watertown. Last year’s contest drew 30 performers and more than 100 spectators to raise approximately $1000 for the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association.
Karaoke lovers are invited to join the fun and belt out a favorite tune for cash prizes totaling $350. Contestants can win $100 for “Best Solo Performance;” $50 per person for “Best Duet,” $50 for “Most Entertaining;” and $150 for “Best Group Performance.” If singing isn’t your forte, the public is invited to sit back and enjoy a night of entertainment for a great cause. Admission for singers and spectators is $10 per person or $15/couple. The deadline to register is Monday, April 15th.
Singers and spectators can RSVP online at carthagehospital.com/karaoke, call 315-519-5211 or email contest organizer Taylour Scanlin, Carthage Hospital Foundation & Marketing Executive Director, at tscanlin@cahny.org with their name, phone number, and song choice, if applicable. Singers must submit a song choice in advance to ensure the DJ has it available. If a song is not chosen ahead of time, contestants will have to pick from a list of available songs. Singers are encouraged to sign up early. The total number of acts will be limited to 30.
Scanlin will host the event and a three-person panel of local “celebrity” judges will decide contest winners. Judges include North Country Heart Walk organizer Stacy Spaziani and representatives from Tunes 92.5 WBLH Radio and WWTI ABC 50 & The North Country CW.
Tunes 92.5 WBLH Radio, WWTI ABC 50 & The North Country CW, and Ramada Watertown are contest sponsors. Constant Velocity DJ Services will provide karaoke services.
Carthage Area Hospital is a sponsor of the 2019 North Country Heart Walk and raises money throughout the entire year to support the cause.
