As I type this message, we are just days away from our ninth annual Elementary Music Festival and our annual fall workshop. I am excited that so many of you are bringing your students to participate in this wonderful festival. As many of you know we have now expanded the festival to include two clinicians, Mr. Ken Berg and Dr. Michele Champion. I am excited to hear the two fabulous children’s choirs perform on Friday evening and spend the day learning with you from our talented clinicians on Saturday.

If I don’t get to see you at the fall workshop, I hope I will see you at our January Conference. The 2015 AMEA Conference will be held in Montgomery again this year, and this is a conference you will not want to miss. Pre-registration is now open at
www.alabamamea.org and you can reserve your hotel room at the Renaissance as well. Our conference this year is going to have a wide range of sessions that will include something for everyone.
