I have received a couple of items from MTNA. The first is a notice that theWeber State University Collegiate Chapter was named 2005 Collegiate Chapter of the Year for 2005. Secondly, MTNA has just circulatedits "Music Teachers National Association Where to Turn Guide." It is an alphabetical listing of all the departments at the national headquarters. I will have copies for everyone at the next meeting. If you can't make it, as always, we will get the listto you via mail.
Also, thank you to everyone who helped make Achievement Day another successful event. Especially to the students, who worked so hard, played beautifully, and brought in some wonderful art and essays. Congratulations to all. And Judy, we missed you, hope you're feeling better.
I'm looking forward to the next meeting. The program on improvisation shouldbe veryinteresting!
