May Meeting
Judy Johnson
May Meeting: Wednesday, May 10, 9:03 a.m.
Home of Peggy Tighe, 5472 Lighthouse Pt. (West on 1st Street to Marianna Cove, turn left on Cove Drive and left on Lighthouse.) Ignore the the state Notes & News. They printed another location. A pot luck luncheon will follow.

This is the last meeting of the school year and will be an open discussion meeting. Call Bill if you have something you would like to have on the agenda. Achievement Day is already on the agenda. This is such a good meeting to evaluate how we are doing so we can make things even better next year. A pot luck luncheon will follow.

President's Message
Bill Popp
I'm looking forward to the last meeting of this season. It will be a time to reflect on the events and programs that we enjoyed together. Congratulations are in order to all, as we had another very successful year. But, it is a time to look to the future, to explore where we can improve. Bring your ideas and concerns to the table. We may have some stimulating conversations. Also, the nominations committee will present the slate of officers for next year as well as the new chairpersons. We will be in very good hands. Best wishes to all. I hope to see everyone at the luncheon following the meeting.

Honor's Recital
Don't forget the Honor's Recital Saturday evening, May 6, 7:00 p.m. Please remember to bring a plate of cookies and help out as needed with set up and clean up.

2006 Piano Festival
Bill Popp
Here are the guidelines for next fall's Piano Festival: 1) Required piece, from a North American composer born in the United States or Canada. 2) A piece from a different stylistic period than the first piece. The composer may be of any nationality (including the U. S. and Canada.) These are the latest instructions, so disregard any previous notices that are different.

Baroque Dancing Class

I'm having a Baroque Dancing Class at my home for piano or other students to learn what it was like to dance to this period of music. We'll learn history, type of dress, and of course the different styles: minuet, polonaise and the gavotte. The cost is only $30 for five days of class, plus a rehearsal just before the performance. Classes will be held June 12-16, 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. at m. home. The performance will be Saturday, June 17, at 4:00 p.m. Call 663-7928 if you are interested.
