Message from the WVSL President
Dear Members:
It is truly an honor and pleasure for me to
serve as President of the West Virginia Symphony League. I have been
involved with the league for over twenty years, beginning with my tenure as
part-time bookkeeper of the Charleston Symphony Orchestra.
Since then, we have changed the name to the
West Virginia Symphony Orchestra, moved the administrative offices from an
old Victorian house on Virginia Street and the performances to the majestic
new Clay Center for the Performing Arts; not to mention a new magnificent
maestro and a great administrative staff – Paul, Kathy, Marcia, just to name
a few of the eleven total, who work with us and support us in our efforts.
As the saying goes, “we’ve come a long
way”…
As most of you know, we, the league, serve
as a fundraising arm of the orchestra. Our annual pledge is used to
supplement operating expenses for the administration of the orchestra. So
it is only apt that we serve as ”Support for
A NEW VISION FOR NEW TIMES”,
the theme of the
Orchestras’ Capital
Campaign. This is our opportunity to use creative ways to work diligently
to hopefully raise even more funds to support the orchestra’s operations.
I want to extend a
sincere thanks to those of you who have volunteered to chair various
committees. Each of the committees can always use more help. So, please
step forward.
If each of us asked
one additional person to join us in our efforts, we would be able to double
the size of the league. Invite a friend to one of our general meetings or
contact Janice Lessley for membership forms.
Thanks to each and
every one of you for helping the league support our wonderful symphony
orchestra. How fortunate we are to have this exciting and talented
organization here in our community.
See you all at our
fundraising events!
Beth Ann Surber, President The West Virginia Symphony League
