I am a child of the mountains, was raised at the head of Cabins Creek, which is a little valley that was a coal camp that no longer exists, the camp is gone, they are mining coal, now they are blowing the mountain tops off.
It was a small valley between 3 mountains, my house was surrounded by creeks on three sides, and I learned to roam the mountains and listen to music of the hills and that's why these songs are so special to me.
And that's why everywhere I've been when I was away in school, at Centre College, one of my musical focuses was the use of folk music by classical composers.
This first song is called Aunt Sals(?) Song, this is one of the indigenous pieces that I just mentioned.

KSYSA is using the Logical Solutions computer registration program beginning with the 1996/97 seasonal year.
This form may be modified by KSYSA member leagues/clubs to suit their particular needs, but the top third of the form must be the same format as the established USYSA format.
The top section should be filled out by the club/coach giving the league name, the team name and the age group of the team.
If a player uses a nickname, or a shortened version of his/her name, that may be listed; however, it may lead to some confusion and unnecessary corrections as the player outgrows the nickname.
If a league/club modifies the USYSA Membership Form, some provision should be made for the signatures/date on the modified form.

In considering the topic ?Taking the Next Step" I'm going to use some of the writings of Jill Ker Conway as a reference for my observations.
Yet this world gave me most of what we need in life, and gave it generously.
Key to all of this--a tribute I feel I always must pay--is that I had a wonderfully supportive, loving family--my parents and my brother have always encouraged me, stressed the value of education, and helped me achieve my goals.
Build on it, in whatever way you can.
If your goal is to move up into further leadership roles in your profession or organization, you must act in such a way that your personal values and goals harmonize and have integrity with the direction and style of your career.
