I do know definitively that we wrote and approved by-laws in 78.

I was on the founding board with Ron Rubin, Alan Davis, Tom Sonneborn and others. Our first meeting was at the Summit Lodge in Killington. That meeting was spearheaded by Ron, who was at the Dept. of Ed. at the time, and by Alan, who was at Vermont Council on the Arts. I remained on the board up until the time of the first summer institute.

I continue to grow as a teacher and musician and have just attended a MOST worthwhile EWE Drumming Class at CCSU’s Summer Institute (New Britan Conn.). I would HIGHLY recommend and request you consider Jeremy Cohen, drum teacher, as a presenter when planning your next conference. Jeremy is extremely knowledgeable and in addition has acquired the ability to teach – a rare combination. You will find his bio and course information at http://www.thisworldmusic.com I cannot overstate what a passionate, knowledgeable teacher he is and the VAAE would find the quality of his work to exceed the level of professionalism required. Thank you. Irene Drew, Elementary Music, Rivendell Interstate School District.
