From CMENC... Robert Pendergraft, President, Collegiate MENC
Even though the summer months are usually a time to relax, it has been a busy couple of months for the CMENC officers. We have been earnestly trying to plan a fall summit that will be informative and enjoyable, as well as challenging and refreshing. I am excited to say the line-up we have come up with is one which few other student groups have the opportunity to experience. We will kick off the event on Friday evening, October 10, in Birmingham at Samford with a concert of elementary students from around the state. This will be followed by an opportunity to share ideas of peers from around the state at the evening mixer. The rest of Friday evening will be on your own to enjoy the city before kicking off an exciting day on Saturday. Dr. Richard Grunow, chair
of the music education department at Eastman, will deliver a series of seminars applicable to all areas of music teaching. We will have round table discussions going on simultaneously during lunch that will be specific to the student’s desired teaching area: instrumental, choral, or elementary.
I am so very excited to
have been a part of this opportunity and I hope that each of you from around the state will be able to attend. Students from the Birmingham area have already graciously offered a place for out of town chapters to stay so the trip can remain as cost efficient as possible. Looking forward to the winter meeting, again we have some exciting plans in the works so I encourage you to plan now to attend the conference in January.
I look
forward to seeing each of you in October. If you need any details please do
not hesitate to contact me at
rbpender@samford.edu. Check the Facebook group of Alabama CMENC and the upcoming issues of Semi Breve for more details about both of these upcoming events.
