Happy 2014!

Hi, Everyone!

I've been thinking about what the NBBA can do for our membership, teachers, students and general lovers of concert bands and music this year.  Here's a quick breakdown:
  • BandBlast 2014 - Fredericton, NB
  • Website - continue to update
  • Scholarship for National Youth Band finalists from NB to help with costs
  • Canadian Band Association - semi-annual meeting is coming to Fredericton in November
  • Relationship building with school districts
If any of you have any ideas for events, clinics, etc. please do let me know.

We are also looking for student representatives to be members on the NBBA Board of Directors.  Please let me know if you or someone you know are interested.   

In order to entice prospective members to join and to bring back former members, NBBA and CBA are pleased to present a complementary copy of the Canadian Winds Journal for your reading pleasure.  This journal is usually available to members only.  Here is the link:
