Re: Trumpets at This Years ITG

You remind me of Monette enthusiasts.

The hosting of conferences has no bearing on the location. If you meet the criteria on the web site you will probably get the conference.

Hosting a conference is a big deal and not many apply for the job. There is no reason you can't host a conference in L.A. Ask Disney Land to host it. Just meet the criteria.

The conference is held as near to the end of school years as possible. When college trumpet sections attend to perform at preludes they have to arrange for out of dorm housing so they can practice at their own university before traveling to the conference.

This year was June 1 to 6 and more than a few high school educators were there. I think Eastern high schools run into June with their school years. Most of the U.S. is through with high school by June 1st.
Sydney, Australia in 2010 will be held in July.
China is looking to host in 2015.

Feel free to run for the Board of Directors if you want to make changes. Any member can run.

As for trumpets at the conference were Hub Van Laar, Yamaha, Bach, Schilke, Conn, Eclipse, Edwards, Jupiteer, Sonare, Spencer, Stomvi, check the web site or Jen's web site.
