We regret to inform you that, due to the anticipated impact of Hurricane Milton, we have made the decision to cancel the 2024 FOA/FLASTA Conference originally scheduled for Thursday and Friday, October 10-11. Regarding the All State Judging and CBAA Certification Renewal, both scheduled for Saturday, October 12, we will be making a final decision by Wednesday. We are hopeful that, depending on the storm's movement, these events may still proceed. Additionally, we are working to issue refunds for those who have pre-paid for the conference. Further details on the refund process will be provided soon. Thank you for your understanding and patience as we prioritize everyone's safety. Please stay tuned for additional updates.
Due to the unforeseen impact of Hurricane Helene, we have decided to extend the Honors Orchestra application deadline until Monday, October 7th. We hope this extension allows everyone the necessary time to submit their applications amidst the challenges caused by the storm. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. Stay safe, and thank you for your understanding and continued support.
Please review these proposed changes to the FOA Bylaws that will be voted on during the FOA General Business Meeting on October 11 at 10:30 a.m., during the Fall Conference.
Corrections have been made to the Concert Violin and Symphonic Cello audition materials, and the Harp audition requirements are now available.
Auditions will be held in September. At the start of the new school year, see your director for your district's specific audition date.
