STEP

On behalf of Evelyn, our Artistic Director:

Next year is the 25^th anniversary of STEP! I can't believe that I was here at the beginning playing away on Twinkle Twinkle Little Star! And I still play it almost everyday!!! What a beautiful piece of music to live life by!

We're hoping to plan many events for the upcoming Anniversary year 2006/2007, not the least of which will be the return of an alumnus, Mark Fewer, now an internationally acclaimed violinist. He will be playing with the NSO in November and has kindly agreed to be a part of events for us. Please check out his bio at the Vancouver Symphony where another one of our alumni also is a member, Jennie Press.

There are also many other exciting offers and opportunities for events for our students in the upcoming anniversary year.

To make these events happen and our year special WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW! The time for organizing and brainstorming of events is nigh; please volunteer now and we can make a great year of events. We need lots of people to make this happen so that a few aren't overworked!

If you're interested in volunteering for anniversary events, please let us know; we need general volunteers as well as a few people to help set up a committee to oversee the preparations and successful launching of events.

Show your STEP spirit and please email stepanniversary@yahoo.ca to indicate your interest. Also please send along any ideas you have!

Sincerely,
Evelyn Osborne, Artistic Director.

Please show your support and get involved with the anniversary planning, it will be a fantastic year for us all, and even more perfect with your enthusiasm and help. :)
