BACKGROUND INFO
After OSC was closed, europezgal08 and myself recently were talking about how we missed hosting the contest and missed seeing an open contest on the forums.
We have discussed and with the long break have become revitalised and ready to reopen the contest with fresh ideas and exciting to give you a contest to have fun in and compete.
We hope you re-join and remind yourself what OSC is all about and support in making the Olympiad Song Contest brilliant!
