Such a short time ago for so many big adventures. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you have any background in music, education or music education?<\/strong><br \/>\nI do not have any musical talents. No one wants to hear me sing or play an instrument. My background is being a choir momma extraordinaire. I was the choir booster president during my daughter&#8217;s high school years. This earned me the nickname Momma C because the kids always said Momma could SEE everything.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did you get started tour directing?<\/strong><br \/>\nIn my choir momma days, I organized the yearly tours and was in charge of making sure the trip ran smoothly. I also became a certified travel agent right out of high school and worked in the travel industry for three years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How many total trips have you tour directed?<\/strong><br \/>\nCurrently I have directed five amazing trips and gained so much knowledge on moving large groups with heavy equipment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the most challenging part of being a successful MTC Tour Director?<\/strong><br \/>\nRemembering I am not the choir momma anymore and that I am the key to making the clients trip everything they hoped for when booking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the largest group you have tour directed?<\/strong><br \/>\nMyself and another TD took 160 travelers to Honolulu, Hawaii. I had 100 travels in my airline group along with the marching band instruments.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5563\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5563\" style=\"width: 1140px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musictravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Christy-Huffman-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1140\" height=\"764\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musictravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Christy-Huffman-3.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.musictravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Christy-Huffman-3-1024x686.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.musictravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Christy-Huffman-3-768x515.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.musictravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Christy-Huffman-3-640x429.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.musictravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Christy-Huffman-3-400x268.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.musictravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Christy-Huffman-3-367x246.jpg 367w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1140px) 100vw, 1140px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5563\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Training trip to Disney World.
