SUMMARY:NVMTA Social Events
DESCRIPTION:NVMTA social events are one of the best parts of being a member! \nThese events give us a chance to step away from our practicing and teaching\, connect with colleagues\, and enjoy one another’s company in a relaxed\, informal setting. Whether we’re hiking\, sharing a meal\, exploring a local attraction\, or simply getting together to catch up\, these events help us build friendships and a stronger sense of community. We love them because they remind us that we’re not just a group of music teachers—we’re colleagues who genuinely enjoy spending time together!
