Welcome from MWACDA President Derrick Fox

I am both honored and thrilled to connect with you through this message as we begin our journey together in MWACDA. Our association, bound by a common passion for choral music, is on a remarkable trajectory. Together, we have the power to inspire, to build communities of learning and creativity, and to celebrate the art that unites us.
As we move forward, our collective goal is to elevate our commitment to choral music, fostering an environment where every voice is heard and every member finds inspiration. It is in this spirit that I encourage each of you to actively engage in promoting the profound impact of choral music. Your dedication is crucial in nurturing a thriving network of educators, performers, and supporters who will carry our shared vision forward.
Looking ahead, I am excited about the wealth of resources that will soon be available through our R and R areas. These resources are designed to support your efforts and to provide innovative tools and insights that will enrich your practice and enhance the choral experience for all involved. As we chart our course toward the 2026 Regional Conference, let us embrace these opportunities with enthusiasm and creativity. This conference will be a celebration of our collective achievements and a testament to our dedication to choral music.
In the coming months, I encourage you to engage with these resources, share your successes and challenges, and contribute to the vibrant dialogue that defines our association. Together, we can shape a future where choral music continues to thrive, inspire, and bring joy to communities across the Midwest and beyond.
Thank you for your unwavering commitment and passion. I look forward to celebrating our shared accomplishments and envisioning an even brighter future for the Midwestern American Choral Directors Association.
