Spring Convention / PAC

Thanks to everyone for making the 2009 PAC such a success! Stay tuned for details on 2010!

Performing Arts Competition

Each year at our Spring Convention students of members in good standing are eligible to participate in a Performing Arts Competition. In addition to being an exciting weekend, it is a major fund-raiser for our non-profit organization. Our Performing Arts Competition is wonderfully diverse, with performances of every style and size.

Spring Convention

Held in conjunction with the Performing Arts Competition, this allows our members and their students another chance to take classes and enhance their skills. All students participating in the competition must be pre-registered for and attend the workshop.

Our third Grand Body Meeting is held this weekend. Elections for our Board of Directors is held every two years at the Spring Convention. There are eight elected board positions.
