Monthly Theme

This year we are having monthly themed meetings. Our themes deal with music around the world, and every month we pick a different country to base our theme upon. Some of our events correspond to the theme, such as the beginning of the year Fiesta at Dr. Burton's and the steel drum workshop in November. In addition to events, each month Anthony, the Vice President of our chapter who came up with the idea of themed meetings, puts together and presents a fun facts sheet on music, traditions, and culture from that country.

Here is a list of themes. Check out the fun facts sheets by Anthony!
