Service in Music Month!

Hey everyone!

We are less than a week away to Service in Music Month! The theme this year will once again be “Serving ALL Ages”.

Each week during the month of October, a different age group will be targeted. Let’s raise awareness within our communities.

DO NOT FORGET to download the Service in Music Month Log on tbssed.org (coming soon). Once your chapter has completed the log, please email to me at sedvpsp@tbsigma.org. If you have any more questions, comments, or concerns, do not hesitate to get in contact with me!

March Service Reminders

Good Evening, TBS SED!!

It’s the first week of March, which is the start of Service in Schools Month! Hopefully you are already out there participating by doing service for a school near you, but if not, jump on it!

Also, please don’t forget about the trash=treasure fundraiser! Also, tell your friends to search their closets and give anything they want to donate to you! You do not have to be ITB to be able to donate to a great cause! You can mail anything music related that you would like to donate to the following address:

SED VPSP

Or, bring it to SED Convention on March 21st-23rd!

SED Convention Paperwork!

Hello TBS SED,

Although I did not send out thirty thousand reminder emails, we had ALMOST all of our chapters fill it out! Which is great. BUT not all of them, so if your chapter is listed below, that means I have NOT received your Convention paperwork. This year it is a breeze because IT IS ALL ONLINE!!!! Please fill it out here ASAP, so I will know if you or someone from your chapter is attending convention. It is imperative that you attempt to get at least one person to convention, as important decisions are made here that do affect your chapters!

Epsilon Lambda (NCCU)

SED Convention Forms

Hey Southeast District,

Another email, another topic. This year, I have worked all of the SED Forms and paperwork we need from your chapter to be DIGITAL!!! WHOOOHOOOO. This is very cool in several ways:
1. You can do it easily
2. You can fill it out quickly
3. You do not have to worry about postage
4. I get your response as soon as you are complete!
So, I would like to remind you that Convention is in ONE MONTH AND ONE WEEK!!!!! AHHH!
Looking forward, in order for me to start working on our committee assignments, committee chairs, etc, I am asking that this form is filled out and submitted to me by THIS FRIDAY, February 21 (one month from convention)!
  • If you are attending convention, the form will ask you questions like who you delegates might be, what committees you are interested in, and other fun facts about your chapter.
  • If you are not attending convention (I might cry), but also, it will only ask you to fill out the forms I need from you (chapter proxies).
Please have this form filled out to me as soon as you possibly can, I will be in touch with the individual chapters who have not completed said forms.
You can find the forms on the SED website (tbssed.org) OR on the SED Convention website (sed2014.com) under Register/Forms/TBS.
 
I can’t wait to see you all in March!!!
