The successful POE (Pipe Organ MEMBERS -AT -LARGE Encounter) has been expanded to POE+ for adults. It is an understatement to say JaneenBaker that we, as an organization, recognize the necessity to constantly put people in Lucia Clemente-Faleo sight and sound reach of the organ. We no longer lock organs as fast as possible Debra Le:lhun following service and say "do not touch" as our main message. James Moore In keeping with this, the Worcester Chapter is one of many who award Karen Wwlsma scholarships to worthy students. What is a worthy student? We are currently Susan Wildman furming a new scholarship committee to work year round to review our guidelines PROFESSIONAL OONCERNS fur awarding scholarships and our means of raising scholarship funds on an on- '\/ going basis.

With an audition tape and a recommendation of the AGO Lois Toeppner teacher, the student may receive help. That is, as long as there are funds to give.

See Dean's note below.

I ask that you support the board on this for the followiog reasons: newsletters, which are the life-lioe of the chapter are costing $350-$400 a month to produce and our yearly dues do not cover this expense. This iocludes first-class postage that allows everyone to receive the news io a timely manner, but printiog is the larger cost. 10 issues of the newsletter therefore takes all the dues money that we are allowed tore­ tain from what we collect. At the same time that we are askiog you to adopt this motion, we are also workiog hard to raise scholarship funds, to iocrease the general membership so that revenue and outreach is higher, and to put ioto place the advisory committee (not yet formed sioce the chapter vote io 2000) who will consider iovestment op· tions for the priocipal so that we might have greater ioterest to spend. The funds we are seekiog to transfer to the general account and the scholarship account will simply allow us to function with programmiog for the comiog year (2003 & ioto 2004) while we solve the other challenges. If you have further questions do not hesitate to e-mail or telephone. Thank you for your tiroe and thoughtful vote.

HENDERSON SCHOLARSHIP ANNOUNCED BY THE AMERICAN GUILD OF ORGANISTS Permanently Restricted Fund Will Provide Scholarships for Pipe Organ Encounters Attendees Beginning in2003 The AMERICAN GUILD OF ORGANISTS (AGO) is pleased to announce the activation of the CHARLES N. HENDERSON SCHOLARSHIP, made possible by a fund created in 2001 in memory of the late Editor Emeritus of The American Organist Magazine. Established by the family and friends of Mr. Henderson and the AGO National Council, the scholarship will be awarded to deserving Pipe Organ Encounters participants beginning in 2003. This is the sixth and newest permanently endowed scholarship sheltered by the AGO New Organist Fund Tax­ deductible contributions to increase this fund further are welcomed. "The AGO is very grateful for the generosity and support of the many individuals whose vision for the future of our profession is manifested by the creation of scholarships for young, aspiring musicians," notes Frederick Swann, president of the AGO. "These individuals have made an investment in the youth of America, whose enhanced knowledge of the organ and appreciation of its role in worship will contribute to a bright future for our profession." A native of West Chester, Pa., CHARLES NEWTON HENDERSON (1917-2001) graduated cum laude from Bucknell University. He later studied at the Julliard School of Music in New York, the Fontainebleau School in France, and at Syracuse University, where he earned his master's degree under Arthur Foister.
