Youth Symphony members- letter from Mr. Garrett

Dear Youth Symphony Member:

I wanted to remind you again of the announcement that I made about the dress rehearsal. The top orchestra will not have its dress rehearsal on Saturday, May 2 like the other SYSO groups. Rather, our dress rehearsal will be on Sunday afternoon beginning promptly at 12:30 PM and 2:00 PM on stage at Smith. This will make it possible for us to have all our musicians present, and will avoid the conflict with Saturday's OSAA State Solo Contest.

I have been informed that there will be photographers there to take a group picture. Please come fully dressed in concert uniform for the dress rehearsal, so that we can get a good photo as well. They will be taking action pictures of us as well.

Seniors -Please check with Joyce Epp at Monday's rehearsal and make sure that we have your senior designation and number of years of service correct. I do not want to miss any of you in my presentation on stage at the concert.

I am eagerly looking forward to our concert.

Sincerely,

Larry Garrett

PS from Joyce Epp:  Tickets available at Monday's rehearsal for $7 family member adults, $5 students. Remember, this is your LAST CHANCE before the concert to purchase tickets ahead, due to no Saturday dress rehearsal.
