FROM THE SOCIETY WEB SITE:

Polecat Songs

In 1971, International President Ralph Ribble launched a new Society activity known as the Barberpole Cat Program. Its purpose is to encourage as many Barbershoppers as possible to become involved in quartet singing.  The goal is not necessarily the formation of registered quartets, although that would be a great result, if it were to happen. Rather, the program introduces men to the joy of singing with three other guys. Since then the Barberpole Cat Program has been consistently successful. The current list of 12 “polecat” songs was selected in 1987 by a vote of Society members.
