President’s Message

Karen Walker The surveys are in, and the top 5 answers are on the board....no, it’s not “Family Feud” but the results from the San Diego conference surveys, and once again our conference was a success. Here are a couple of those comments:

          “I love the annual AMPPR conferences. They are a shot in the arm for people like me who don’t live or work in large urban areas or at universities that have music programs.”

            “I thought this was the best AMPPR conference I’ve attended!”

     These and many other comments like them are wonderful to hear. They mean all the hard work the AMPPR Board and the conference planners put into the annual Music Personnel Conference are well worth the effort. It also means the Board and I have a lot of work ahead of us in planning the 2004 conference in Clearwater Beach, Florida. Make sure you have February 25-29, 2004, on your calendar. 
     Additionally, if you have any comments or suggestions for sessions, please email them to me at walkerkl@missouri.edu or any of the AMPPR Board members. 
     I would like to thank everyone for their support of the annual Music Personnel Conference. Station representatives, speakers, panelist, record labels, and all other industry personnel, you all make the conferences successful. And, of course, thanks to Beverley Ervine for all of her hard work over the past several years as AMPPR President.

Karen Walker
AMPPR President
