"HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!"

FEBRUARY MEETING
ACHIEVEMENT DAY PLANNING SESSION

Wednesday, February 10, 2010
9:00 a.m. until finished
LOCATION: First Christian Church
**This is a required meeting if you are entering students in Achievement Day.**

FROM OUR PRESIDENT:
Hello everyone,
I just want to quickly say thank you to all the teachers who performed at the last meeting.
There was a nice mix of repertoire and I enjoyed every selection.
Some brief reminders:
Our next meeting is devoted entirely to Achievement Day planning.
If you have students participating "be there or be square."
On March 10, Marjorie Monroe-Fischer will be discussing "Music in China." This should be fascinating.
On March 13 we have our Ensemble Recital.
Last year we had a wonderful turn out. I hope we can repeat this event with as much enthusiasm.
It is also one of my duties to remind everyone that the MTNA National Conference is in Albuquerque this year, from March 20-24.
As always, there will be a wide array of master classes and recitals from renowned professionals.
Check it out in the February/March "Music Teacher" magazine. And, New Mexico is "The Land of Enchantment."
See you soon. I'm looking forward to Achievement Day. It will be fun.
Bill
