North Dakota Music Teachers Association

2004 Convention

The Fargo/Moorhead MTA would like to invite all North Dakota MTA members to the 2004 State Conference to be held on the beautiful campus of Concordia College in Moorhead. Lodging at Days Inn will be very close to campus and all the meal functions will be within 2 blocks. We think you'll find the agenda has variety and interest for everyone. We're especially thrilled to have Timothy Schmidt as guest artist and look forward to his concert and presentations. We'll do all the preparations. You just need to attend! Bring a friend, and we hope to see you all at Concordia in October.
