Memorial Lesson – John Hollingsworth spoke of the various situations that prevent singers from attending, mostly involving surgeries, and led 25b, Brimmer, in their honor. Each person on the list of deceased is significant to someone in the class, and for older singers there are many deceased who have been gone for many years that we should remember also. John led 53, No Parting There, in memory of those gone on.

Business Meeting – New Officers for the convention were elected and their two year term will start in 2020. Chair – Shannon Primm; Vice Chair – Jane Cannon; Secretary – David Smead. Shannon Primm will remain Treasurer due to banking issues. Shannon gave the Treasurer's Report and the class agreed that the Georgia Christian Harmony Convention will continue to sponsor a scholarship to Camp DoReMi in 2020 for a Georgia singer. The Convention will be held in a different, to be determined, location in 2020. The class agreed that due to the continually increasing size of the Sacred Harp Minutes book, the minutes for this singing will no longer be submitted to the Sacred Harp Minutes committee. (Minutes are available online at christianharmony.org.) Nigel Bowley and Brenda Harvey presented The Resolutions report and the business meeting was adjourned.
