Texas Bandmasters Association
Bandmasters Review • April 2013
22
The TBA Spouses’ Luncheon will be held on Monday,
July 22 in the Lonesome Dove Room on the lower level
of the Convention Center.
It’s beautiful, convenient,
and the perfect venue
for getting reacquainted
with old friends and
making some new ones!
You can expect this event
to include a tasty lunch
menu, numerous door prizes, beautiful music, and will
feature Richard Crain as our speaker.
•
Richard Crain
will surely be entertaining and
inspiring as he shares stories of his long career of
working in music education. Mr. Crain retired in 2000
from Spring ISD after 44 years of service in public
schools. He has been involved with TBA for years,
serving as TBA President in 1977 and was honored as
the 1994 TBA Bandmaster of the Year. Last year he was
named a 2012 TBA Honorary Life Member. In addition
to his accomplishments in Texas, he and his wife Gayle
have been involved with The Midwest Clinic since
1992. They were inducted into the Bands of America
Hall of Fame in 2005.
