On Sunday, April 30, 2000
the District 7 Distinguished Service Award was presented to Dr. George Curfman
as
part of the Lebanon Valley College Orchestra concert. Dr. Curfman
served as a professor of music education at Lebanon Valley College
for 34 years, molding the careers of countless music educators. Dr.
Curfman retired from LVC in 1996. Since that time, he has remained
active in PMEA activities, served as interim chair of the LVC music
department and has taught music education courses at Elizabethtown
College. In her nomination of Dr. Curfman for this award, Dr. Mary
Lemons stated, "I believe that Dr. Curfman's high quality music
teaching and his leadership in PMEA has significantly contributed to
the growth and high standard of music teaching in central
Pennsylvania as well as the entire state. His years of dedication to
the music education profession make him a worthy candidate for the
PMEA Distinguished Service Award. "Participating in the presentation
were LVC MENC President Lindsay Shattuck, District 7 President-elect
Rodney Miller, and outgoing C/l Chair, Cindy Conway.
