IPA Hall of Fame

The Hall of Fame is the highest honor awarded to those individuals who have made a significant contribution to the Indiana Percussion Association and who have in some way influenced the course of our history. Their contribution may be made through artistic standards, administrative leadership, or adjudication.

 

On April 2nd we acknowledge three individuals in to the Indiana Percussion Association’s inaugural Hall of Fame class:

  • Rusty Bottomley

  • Daniel Fyffe

  • Jay Webb

These gentlemen played integral roles in laying the groundwork for the Indiana Percussion Association and the success it sustains today.
