​The slide show in the above header is comprised of photos taken at the 2019 Western Division Christmas Benefit Concert, that was hosted by the Strathroy Vocal Federation.  Mixed in with these pictures are those from the Chapter's 2019 Christmas/Awards Dinner and those from the 2019 Horseshoe Pitch.

With the picture to the left, we would like to acknowledge the services that were generously granted to The Strathroy Vocal Federation by the man pictured on the left.  For each and all of our annual shows, Blake Hughes created, with his exceptional, artistic abilities, a stage background like the one shown with him. Blake has since retired from the Chapter and we indeed do miss him, but we wish him our best, with thanks for all he has done for us over the years.

​Before continuing on, there are some members of the Strathroy Vocal Federation who would like to say HELLO to all visitors to this site, in their own special way:
And, as of November 17th, 2018,  the members of this chapter, as well as members in chapters all over Southern Ontario, are mourning the loss of the man in that video who said "Hi" after giving us the chance to hear his beautiful bass voice.  BIG Jim Mcdougall will most certainly be missed, as he played such an important part in the starting and maintaining of the Strathroy Vocal Federation.  Jim spent most of his  barbershopping years with London's Men of Accord, and Doug Petch, who is a member of the London chapter, and who has known BIG Jim from when he first started singing with them back in 1960, wrote a fantastic article entitled "Memories of BIG Jim". It was published in the December 2018 issue of the Men of Accord's newsletter called The Clipper and I ask that you click on either of the last two, highlighted links to be taken to the newsletter so that you can read Doug Petch's article, and thankyou Doug.



​Welcome to the official website of the Strathroy Vocal Federation.  The Federation is a group of men both young and old, coming from Strathroy, Ontario and surrounding communities.  We come together every Wednesday evening from 7:30 pm to 10:00 pm, at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church at the corner of Albert and Richmond Street in Strathroy, whether it be spring, summer, fall or winter. 


During that time our door is open and our hands outstretched for any man with interest in sharing in the fun and enjoyment of singing in four part, close harmony, in the “Barbershop” style.  As we sing it in the song, “Your As Welcome As The Flowers in May”. 
To learn more about our organization and the pastime that we love, check out “The Federation” section and “The Members” section of the website using the navigation bar above. We are a chartered chapter of the Ontario, Canada Division of the Barbershop Harmony Society (BHS), formerly known as the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barber Shop Quartet Singing in America (S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A).  For links to associated organizations and other BSH chapter websites in Ontario, go to our Links page, and after seeing and reading all that is available at this site and others, and you feel the urge to join us, take the next step by going to the “Join Us!” page.

If you are already a member, feel free to enter “The Woodshed” section of our website and sample some of the tools available there that can assist us in learning what we so much enjoy doing.  Non members can read what is on the first page of that section.
