Hello, Westwood Orchestra Supporters and Enthusiasts!
We are about to embark upon another wonderful year, full of artful and creative music, and more events to enrich our year together as one big orchestral family! Below are some dates worth saving, but please know there is much more happening (concerts, auditions, contests, etc.), and you can see the dates/times of those additional events on our Westwood Orchestra Booster Club website at the following link: https://sites.google.com/site/wworchboosters/Home
There are also some additional Booster Club Board meetings listed on the website, and parents are welcome to attend these meetings as well - the more the merrier! We need your help to make this year a success for everyone - so please, come one, come all! We'll be having out Orchestra-Booster-Club-Parent-Student-All-Inclusive-First-of-the-Year KickOff Meeting, see date and time for this directly below... in this meeting, we'll be talking to you about what to expect from our booster club, ordering of yard signs and t-shirts, the volunteer positions available, explain what can be expected of you and your orchestra students throughout the year, and address some questions you may have about the orchestra program. It's going to be informational, AND fun... so please come, learn, socialize, relax, enjoy. Please note that the attachments contained in this message include the following: This letter with the list of Booster Club meetings and events, a Booster Club Membership Survey (with purchase instructions), your Meet&Greet invitation, and samples of our Orchestra Pride signs.
We look forward to seeing you at these happenings this year, and we shall see you at the kickoff! Thank you all for your time and support. ⦁
