Bad Weather Policy
Because of the size of the convention and the very large number of facilities it requires, the convention is NEVER canceled nor rescheduled. OkMEA All-State Ensembles, OkMEA Honor Groups, sessions, and other special events will appear as listed on the schedule, subject to schedule time changes as approved by the Executive Director. Members of the OkMEA All-State Ensembles should not assume bad weather will serve as an excuse for their not being on time and present at the beginning of the festival and audition process. Address questions to the Vice-President of your division or the OkMEA President.
