A Note from the Dean

As we begin this new season together, I want to thank everyone who has given so generously of their time and talent and look ahead at the upcoming events this year. Below are links to some helpful resources to supplement your daily practice and repertoire.

A special word of appreciation goes to those who have stepped down from their roles this year. Chris Oelkers, our dean, Melanie Randall, John Schmidt, and Jack Martin, our Board Members at Large, and Jill Nennmann, our newsletter creator. Your service, thoughtful leadership, and dedication strengthened us through the past years, and we are grateful for all you have done!

Equally, many thanks to those remaining in their positions and stepping forward in new roles. Your willingness to continue to serve keeps our chapter vibrant, and I look forward to our future plans! I am grateful to serve alongside you and support our chapter in every way I can.

A tentative listing of our upcoming events can be found in our Events section. We will fill out more information closer to each date. Please note our first chapter event will be a Members Plus One Recital on October 3 - team up with your favorite musical partner and celebrate our new season! Location and time to be confirmed, but you can submit your selection, partner, and approximate timing here. I would be delighted to reacquaint myself or meet you anew! Please make a special effort to attend.

With gratitude,

Christina Hargis

Dean
