The main sessions were run with spirit by guest clinician Dr. Paul Head. There were additional break-out reading sessions for Children's Chorus, Middle School, Men's and Women's Choruses, and Jazz and Multicultural Music. Attendees went home with generous packets of excellent music, all selected for their usefulness. Amanda Quist , our Youth and Student Activities R&S Chair, was chairperson/registrar.
