During a typical academic year, the Virginia Music Educators Association organizes and presents over 150 events in support of musical excellence in the Commonwealth. The Event Manual was developed during the Summer of 1989 to assist the Event Chairs in planning and executing quality events. The Event Manual was originated in response to areas of confusion and concern reveled by detailed examination of event reports from prior years. The revised Financial Statement forms in the Event Manual were edited to improve the reporting process. These Financial Statement forms will be used and supersede all previous forms.
