An exciting three days is planned for all Conference attendees. My colleagues and I on the 1999 Conference planning committee, guided by the talented and dedicated staff of CMA, are working hard to produce a conference that will be a source of benefit and pleasure. Previous conferences have set a standard of excellence, and we mean to maintain that standard. I look forward to greeting you at the Conference in January. About the Conference Financial Assistance CMA is offering support to members who need financial assistance to attend the conference.
Preference is given to members who have never received a travel award or are first-time attendees.
Past recipients may apply, but will be considered after applicants new to the conference. In the past volunteers have helped register attendees, acted as session managers or note-takers and assisted in many other ways. It's a great way to meet fellow CMA members. In exchange for a modest amount of volunteer time during the conference, scholarship recipients receive a waiver of conference registration fees. Volunteer Scholarships are open to Student, Professional Musician, Advocate and Organization members.
