This past week's Ozark Blues Society's board of directors elections have put me into a distinct mood of contemplation.
Yes, yours truly was elected to another
term as secretary, but as I see it the board officers are not so much about being leaders but about being foundations for support and growth of the art form we
know as blues music.
Besides my duties as secretary, I of course do the newsletter and "try" to keep up
with the website and Facebook, however my greatest passion lies in the education committee I lead. I have led in this area
for OBS for more years than we have
had a committee to plan activities. I am thrilled that more recently we have such
a number of members and musicians interested in assisting this area. To me
this is truly the most important aspect of
my involvement with Ozark Blues Society. Please see the article below for ways you too can get involved.
2016 is now well underway and I am still struggling a bit to keep abreast of events for the calendar. Artists and readers don't forget to link me up to events you have or know about, especially if the events aren't posted to the local calendars. As always I would love submissions of news and other articles as well! Send any
ideas or comments to me anytime at:
