The Board of Directors of the Upper Midwest Flute Association recently received notification from Martha Jamsa of her decision to resign as an UMFA Executive Board member. Martha served last year as Co-President and was to have been President for this coming year. Martha's contributions to UMFA during the past year were extensive and extremely helpful for the organization. The board appreciates Martha's honest evaluation of what her schedule this next year will permit, thus making her resignation decision now - prior to when events will be underway for the coming year. We sincerely thank Martha for her awesome conducting of the Honors Flute Choirs at Flute Fest 2009, for handling Flute Fest email inquiries, contacting volunteers and event participants, various tasks for both Flute Fest and Flute Choir Showcase, for helpful input and ideas at board meetings and through UMFA board email communication, for assistance in establishing the calendar of events, for help in developing position descriptions and for chairing some of the UMFA board meetings.
