2014 President's Message

President’s Message

Warm winter greetings to all! The holiday season is upon us once again! It's a good thing all our major chapter events are finished for this calendar year, since we'll all soon be swept up in the swirl of holiday concerts, rehearsals, performances, parties, family get-togethers, and other festivities.  We'll be ending this year of 2013 with several more successful workshops and fundraisers under our collective belt, and a healthy bank account ready and able to fund next year's upcoming chapter events!

 We all deserve to bask in the glow of the recent and wonderful "Libiamo! A Toast to Song!"  Our profit margin this year was one of our highest, and we'll be more than pleased to spread it around to our talented student singer-winners this coming February at the 
scholarship auditions.

The board is hoping to have an excellent turnout for the general meeting scheduled for Sunday afternoon, January 12th.   Please reserve that afternoon in your appointment calendar!  We have much to plan and discuss, including details relating to the scholarship auditions and the spring workshop.

 I hope you've been able to easily go online at www.nats.org to renew your national and chapter dues for the new year.  We very much want all our previous members to continue with us, and we look forward to welcoming some new faces as well!  Now enjoy reading the rest of the newsletter, and please let us know your fresh ideas and feedback for our chapter's continued growth!

 Wishing you a lovely holiday season,

Vaida Falconbridge
Chapter President
