We want your participation in this process to be successful.  The downloadable packet has critical information to help you conduct your auditions with ease and validity.  You must take time to READ with comprehension what is required.   You must follow all procedures, which will require preparation on your part.  If you have questions, please contact either your FEMEA District Chair or the All-State Orff Coordinator, Holly Mullenix.
