Welcome to new Board Member Todd Caron! Thank you so much for sharing your time with us, Todd! Your help will be truly appreciated. | We could use a couple more board members as “life” got in the way and two previous board members needed to focus elsewhere. We want to thank Alex Teitz, http://www.femmusic.com, for his dedication and work not only in submitting articles for our newsletter but in being our secretary for two years. Program co-ordinator Sheena Morgan’s new business took off and she found herself swamped with many duties so she left us, too. No words can thank you both enough, Alex and Sheena. Please come back if you can!

Stupid Stories About Flying With an Instrument: “The two times I have flown with my violin, I’ve gotten flagged by TSA. My favorite was when they wanted me to take the violin apart so they could check the inside, because, you know, string instruments come apart so easily. They were more concerned about my violin than the multiple pairs of knitting needles in my backpack.”
