This is their eleventh consecutive year to win the District Championship, and qualifies them to represent the District at the International Chorus Competition in Louisvile, Kentucky in July of 2004.  

After the evening Quartet finals, the Ambassadors performed "Harmony, Harmony, "Drunken Sailor". Associate Director David Wright made a special dedication of their final song, "I'll Walk With God", to Rob Henry, who passed away in September. The chorus received a standing ovation that lasted several minutes.

In the District Quartet Competition, quartets from the Ambassadors completed a clean sweep!!
