Welcome!
Message from the President
Welcome to the latest version of the NATS Ontario Newsletter! Fall is now upon us and chances are, you are back to a routine in your studio and in your home. I always relish the return of "normal" that a new school year brings but sometimes a new workload, new students or even more events to attend can be overwhelming! In an effort to keep things simple for all of us, your NATS Ontario executive is working hard to create communications that are clear and easy to access.
Our first order of business was to recreate the quarterly newsletter featuring news and information about our membership and NATS related events. We hope you will email us your news to share with the membership at large!
Our second order was to create a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document for the annual NATS Auditions. You can download the document from our website - we hope this will be your go-to place for all things Auditions. If we missed something, let us know.
As you make your plans for the fall, please keep our annual Fall Banquet, NATS Auditions & Recruitment Day in mind! This year we will convene in London, ON on November 15 & 16 to eat, sing, and gather information. We kick off our weekend Friday night with a meeting and banquet at the beautiful Windermere Manor with special guest, Richard Margison. On Saturday, the Auditions and Recruitment Fair is a perfect opportunity for your students to gain valuable performance opportunities and speak to voice teachers from universities and colleges across the province. Come join us in 2013!
Finally, check out the new look of NATS online. The national office has just unveiled their new look and it is marvellous! Check them out at www.nats.org.
Let me know how you are enjoying our new mode of communication by emailing me at president@natsontario.org.
Happy teaching!
Elizabeth McDonald
PS: Please add president@natsontario.org to your contacts list so you don't miss any important future communications!
