Hello, my name is Allen
Deneau, I am currently serving as the President of the Local Chicagoland
Chapter of the ADJA and I would like to welcome you to our home. Please
read below for a short background on the Chicagoland chapter of the ADJA. The Chicagoland chapter of
the ADJA began in March of 2004 with a BANG! Needing only 5 members to
begin as a chapter in formation and 10 members to become a full-fledged
chapter, so we began with 7 founding members. Within one week we skipped
the whole chapter in formation and jumped right to an official chapter
known as the Chicagoland chapter of the American Disc Jockey Association.
Our first big hurdle was
bringing DJ’s in to see Peter Merry speak in April, just a few weeks after
formation! With a lot of help from individuals and our sponsors like
Pro-Mix, ERG, Denon and others, we were able to help bring one of the
largest gatherings of DJ’s ever to a Peter Merry seminar outside of
National Conventions! We are off to a great start!
In the following weeks and
months our views turned to developing our chapter. We had our ten and a
few more, now we need to multiply and grow our membership! Now just
passing our 6th meeting we have grown very well thanks to our
awesome members and our friends at Pro-Mix.
Currently our Chapter of
the American Disc Jockey Association stands at nearly 70 members with an average
of 1 new member per month. While we are excited about what has already
happened and our growth, we are never satisfied and want to continue
taking this chapter to the top. With your help we can do just that.
Thanks again for stopping
by, now please take some time to explore our site to see why the
Chicagoland chapter of the ADJA is right for you.
Sincerely,
Allen
Deneau
