Annual dues are now due: $35 for adults, $15 for

Keep the orchestra in mind as you make your way around
Connecticut, particularly if you are involved in musical
activities. We are particularly in need of string
players, French Horn players, percussionists, and a
bassoonist. All others are, of course, always welcome.
If you have any good ideas for venues in Jan/Feb or
May/June (our regular spring concert is generally at the
beginning of April, but we can work around it for a
really good idea), please let us know. We are always
looking for new and interesting places to play.
Annual Meeting: Our annual members meeting was held Thursday, June 5th. The following positions were up for reelection:
Treasurer - Dave Twedt was re-elected
Secretary - Sue McGann was re-elected
Member at Large - Lisa Peeling was elected
Congratulations to all!
