October KU NAfME Updates

KU NAfME Updates!

A List of Updates for October

Welcome Back from Fall Break!

A few things are coming up. First, our next NAfME meeting is on October 18th at 7:30pm in Room 130. We are going to have Dr. Emily Rosin presenting! Hope to see you all there!

From our Treasurer, Emma:


NATIONAL DUES

National dues are $30 for Kansas collegiate students, you can renew or sign up here.

Make sure you register for Kansas Music Educators Association and not Kentucky. Once you have purchased your membership there will be a receipt. Please keep a screenshot of the receipt for future reference.

CHAPTER DUES

The deadline for chapter dues is November 22nd. They are $20 and you can either pay via Venmo (which will be set up soon) or pay in cash. If you do not pay the dues by November 22nd, they will increase to $30. Remember, you need to pay these dues to continue to participate in our organization. If you need additional help regarding dues, come talk to us! We want to help you as much as we can.

NEKMEA District Live Audition Reminder:


We also have a volunteer opportunity, especially if you are not in Marching Band, we could really use your help! NEKMEA District Auditions are Saturday, November 5th at Eudora Middle School. Any of our NAfME collegiate members are welcome to sign up. You must only sign up for Monitor, Runner, or Registration Table Worker positions because teachers are filling the other job duties. Our members will also have to report by 7:15am to attend a director meeting and help set up. If you choose to attend, plan to dress in slightly more casual business attire (jeans and a nice shirt or khakis and a nice shirt; you could also wear a KU polo). Click here to sign up.
