College Fair

Dear Colleges and Universities,

IMEA is excited to announce our first High School All State Student College Fair. Students involved in the High School All Sate Choirs, The High School All State Orchestra, The High School All State IMEA Honor Band, The High School All State Jazz Ensemble, and the High School All State Percussion ensemble will come to the exhibit hall to visit the Colleges and Universities. An isle of the exhibit hall will be designated for colleges and universities. This will make the atmosphere more like a college fair. The goal is to keep the all state students in the college area of the exhibit hall when they are visiting. The times each of the groups will be visiting the exhibit hall has yet to be determined. I forsee many ensembles visiting during regular exhibit hours and a few groups visiting on Friday evening.

Please consider being a part of this event.

A postcard with registration details is coming in the mail. I have pasted the information from it below:
