Midweek Meanderings and Miscellany IV

Gearing up to go to New Hampshire Music Educators Spring Conference tomorrow,
running the MENC Resource booth. Will be nice to have a change of scene and meet some of the members from NH!

Speaking of MENC's Centennial (see EWL's and ML's blogs this week) - the
Congress in Florida (June 25- 28) is open! Consider taking some vacation time
at Disney and joining in the discussions!


The National Anthem Project staff at MENC is gearing up for the project finale on June 14....lots going on there, keep an eye out!

And have you ever tried our monthly on - line survey, the Question of the Month?
Give it a try! (click here) We frequently ask YOU for your opinion and inside insights, so please check back from month to month!

Around the Water Cooler:
An 8 year veteran of MENC leaves today, RT, who grew from staff assistant to editorial assistant to manager! With a lovely singing voice and team mentality, and true love of all things music...she will be missed! She's on to bigger challenges and opportunities....

Speaking of Latin Music (American Idol last night - ouch!) - Great group to check out for authentic Latin music (not pop) from Central and S. America - Sol y Canto They also have a kids' album in Spanish.

See you next Wednesday! SR
