Your Orchestra Needs You!
This spring we will be installing a new slate of adult officers and an Executive Board of Directors for the LHSOA. Ms. Doemel and Mr. Mori cannot do the amazing things they do for our kids without committed parent volunteers to run the booster organization, so please consider becoming more involved by taking a lead role. We realize everyone has busy lives, so if you can’t take a position, please express interest in serving on a committee or just showing up to help-out at concerts and other events. Please check-out our Volunteers Page on the website to explore ways you can help, or review the LHSOA By-Laws for a description of leadership positions. You are welcome to email Ida Anderson to express a specific interest or volunteer for an event.
