Greetings members and friends,

Thanks to everyone for your patience but I have scheduled the next Chapter meeting. I have reserved us some time at the Southern Nevada Music Co. store. I have made a tentative date of February 12th (Friday) from 5 PM to 7-7:30 PM. If Friday is a day that doesn’t work for a majority of the members then Wednesday the 10th is available. Anyone who has a conflict with the Friday time should let me know within a week or two of this publication. If a change is made I will notify everyone in a email blast.

For the next meeting there will be no refreshments served so you might want to either bring something you want to have while at the meeting or eat before coming.

I am going to have technical’s devoted to the members that want to take the Classification upgrade exams (rpt) at the upcoming convention. At this meeting I am requesting that all RPT’s attending the meeting shall come prepared with a repair or regulation presentation that a examinee will see on their bench testing. I will have several options such as Hammer filing, Key re-bushing, Hammer flange re-bushing or a quick temperament setting display. Either those or many other subjects like music wire knot tying, Hammer traveling, shank burning, repetition lever regulating, keybed bedding or many other rpt test procedures should be presented by our chapter RPT’s.

We’ll be discussing things we, as the host chapter, need to provide in the “local needs” category. The Yamaha C7 the Rob Goodale and UNLV will be supplying for the master voicing class needs to be planned and should make a stunning presentation.

Look forward to seeing everyone

SEE YOU AT THE NEXT MEETING!!!
