The Fort Frances Chamber of Commerce won't be looking for its Quest for its Best at this year's Fort Frances Canadian Bass Championship.

Manager Dawn Booth says the popular singing competition is being moved to the Memorial Sport Centre at the end of June.

"We we're working with the Fort Frances Canadian Bass Championship," says Booth. "We hosted Quest with them since 1999. We used to do Quest as part of the winter carnival. We were just looking at ways to change things up this year and create some new excitement."

Booth says this year's event won't be just for singers. The chamber has decided to open it up to dance and comedy, hopping to attract a wider range of competitors.

Meantime, Kiddie Quest will be held separately in the fall.
