In Sync

 
ORMTA's 2024 In Sync is next month! We are excited to host our AGM, OCTA Presentation, Keynote Presentation and Competitions in Ottawa from July 16-18. Our Keynote Presentation, given by Tina Fedeski will focus on how OrKidstra’s approach to music-making creates equity, collaboration, and a profound sense of belonging. This fantastic event along with our AGM and OCTA presentation are FREE to everyone. Members are also welcome to join our AGM virtually.
 
Find more info and register online by July 1st here.

Council Positions

 
There are numerous positions on Provincial Council that will become available in July and we are looking for dedicated members to join our team! Councillors are a critical part of keeping our programs running and contributing ideas to the future of ORMTA. Members are welcome to join as Zone Reps or Members at Large and nomination forms are due by June 15th.

Membership Renewal

 
It's time to renew your membership! To view a breakdown of your membership fees, please view the PDF in your Branch's folder in Member Documents. Membership renewal is completed online in two steps: confirming your renewal and completing the payment. Also keep in mind that invoices are only generated after the first step is completed. Payments can be made via cheque, e-transfer or online through PayPal (either with a PayPal account or as a guest, using a credit card). Watch this helpful tutorial to see how this process works and please email techsupport@ormta.org or treasurer@ormta.org with any issues. Membership fees are due June 30th.

Perkopolis & GoodLife

 
This year, we introduced two new member perks for our association. Perkopolis gives members access to hundreds of retail, attraction, travel, dining and entertainment deals and GoodLife Fitness offers ORMTA members (and their family members) a discounted gym membership. So if you are travelling to In Sync this summer or looking to find time to fit in some workouts, don't forget to make use of these offers!
