† Canadian Grand Masters Sponsorship Award.
Because the Wild Rose Old Tyme Fiddlers Association believes in creating opportunities for as many fiddlers as possible, they are providing a $1500 Sponsorship Award to assist in the costs of transportation and accommodation at the subsequent year's Canadian Grand Masters (CGM).
Judges will select the names of the top 3 Alberta competitors in this year’s GNA competition. Their names will be forwarded to the CGM committee for consideration as candidates to be invited to the next CGM. Upon invitation, and their acceptance of that invitation, these 3 contestants are eligible to share in the $1500 Sponsorship Award.
