Pat Stegall, AMEA Treasurer/Registrar
“Wow, that was really fast!” This comment was heard multiple times at the registration desk for the conference. We owe a big “thank you” to the helpers from NAfME that streamlined our registration check-in
process. Our future plans are to keep this process in place and improve the on-site registration process. We had a record attendance with 1,025 members participating.
Our membership campaign is just about to wind up, so I should be able to share that information with you in our next publication. Thanks to the volunteers who have made calls and contacts with our potential members. I look forward to seeing the final numbers.
You may want to add the NAfME app to your smartphone. It has many features that are accessible, including your membership card! This alone will help make the registration process easier for you. Another feature is for renewing your membership by credit card. If you do this, there is a box you can check that will allow NAfME to automatically renew your membership on the renewal date. feature, and you will, too! PS
I love that
Now, with the new NAfME Mobile Membership app, you can access all of your
pertinent NAfME
membership details and renew your membership on the go (more features coming soon.)
Download the app to get the experience of NAfME in your pocket and do your your part for music education!
