Thanks for a Great Convention!
The 2008 MBA Summer Convention has come and gone and it was a great time! We’d like to thank our MBA members, the clinicians, and our exhibitors for providing a super convention and a fine educational experience. Our friends at Port Arrowhead provided a beautiful facility and quality service and the upgrades to the resort were very noticeable.
I’d like to personally thank Rob Nichols for his service to MBA as President and for all the work he put in to make this a strong convention. Rob supervised our move to Port Arrowhead 2 years ago and I’m thankful for his leadership in this move. I’d also like to thank Paul Swofford for his 8 years of service to MBA and wish him the best as he moves off the MBA Board of Directors. Paul has served both as President of MBA as well as MMEA and I know he is looking forward to only being President of the St. Clair Band. Well, maybe Vice-President (sorry Elaine).
We are excited about the addition of Denis Swope as our Membership Chair. Denis is the assistant band director at
