Memories of the TASO Conference in Abilene
April 16-19, 2009
   


Chaired by Nelda Hodges and Judy Miller, the focus for the conference was leadership.  The conference began with a gala evening at the Abilene Country Club with awards given to people who have enriched our communities. On Friday, Nelda Hodges hosted the group to BBQ at her Hodges Hord Creek ranch home. On Saturday, the group was enthralled with the music of the Juanita Miller Concerto Competition winners in Abilene Christian University's William Performance Hall. Lunch and round table discussions were held at ACU.
 
Saturday evening was magical as dinner was served on the stage of the historic Paramount Theater. After dinner, the group attended the Philharmonic conducted by Maestro David Itkins featuring Beethoven's Symphony #9, Colleen Mallectic (soprano), Lynnette Chambers (mezzo-soprano), Matt Newman (tenor), Paul Rowe (baritone), and the University Choirs of Abilene Christian, Hardin Simmons and McMurry.

The conference ended with Sunday Brunch, interesting speakers and election of officers. Thank you Abilene for showering us with your wonderful hospitality!
