From the Vice President...
Building an Advocacy Library Pat Stegall, AMEA Vice-President
I am excited to be a part of the AMEAand I know that you are, too. In thinking about the convention in January, I know that there will be many great events that you will want to attend.
The division interest sessions, concerts
and clinics, as well as the all-state jazz band and show choir will be outstanding. Make sure you attend the per- formances and support the students and directors of these fine ensembles.
The FAME program is a great opportunity for young peo- ple interested in becoming music teachers. Encourage your juniors and seniors to enroll in this program. The seeds planted at this session could produce some wonder- ful rewards.
Music education advocacy is one of the focal points of the January convention. Peter Boonshaft will be our keynote
speaker and will be sharing his ideas for music advocacy. To go along with his ideas, I would like to hear from the members of AMEA about their creative and productive ways of promoting music education in their schools and communities. Send me a note or an article or a success story about what you do and what works for you. We could put your ideas on the AMEAwebsite for all of us to have as an idea base. If you are willing to share, we can develop a network that will help others find ways to pro- mote their programs within our state. I am looking for- ward to seeing you in Tuscaloosa.
