AMCA Activities
Check the following AMCA Activities
The established activities of AMCA are intended to support male chorus singing in the local member choruses. AMCA has assumed additional roles in expanding or extending interest in male chorus singing beyond AMCA. These "outreach" activities are represented by this AMCA Web Site, Big Sing Festivals, a printed Chorister publication, an annual Choral Compostion Contest, support in Music publications, and annual Scholarship awards to qualifying college music students.

Update the calendar
Each AMCA District assigns a host chorus to plan and host a big sing for that district each year.
Every 5 years, there has been an International "Big Sing" for all member choruses
In years when there is an "International Big Sing", AMCA Districts usually focus on the International event rather than hold "District Big Sings".
"Big Sing 2113" is projected to be a "Multi-District" Big Sing in Eau Claire, WI
"Big Sing 2008" was a "Multi-District" Big Sing in Eau Claire, WI
"Big Sing 2003" was to be an International Festival in Lansing, Michigan
