Dear Colleague, Another year of exciting possibilities is available to us. Young people will have the opportunity to reach the top of human potential in their development. All the learning domains will be made generously available. The responsibility is gigantic. We hope to help our teachers eagerly face the challenge. We at Festivals of Music and Music In The Parks offer encouragement through articles by some of our distinguished staff. As always, I would be happy to hear from you by email or telephone concerning any part of our programs. Once again we welcome you to POWERTALK. Sincerely,
