“A Night at the Movies”

Raffle Fundraiser & Concert

Note from our Directors –
Dear Lassiter Orchestra Students and Parents,

Culminating the year with our ‘A Night at the Movies’ performance is certainly a fabulous way to wrap up our 2017-2018 season!  Bravo to each ensemble for their high level of musical performance and thank you, readers, for making the evening even more special!  Additionally, a big ‘thank you’ to our LHSOA Board for putting the icing on the cake with the lovely display of items for our raffle.
As we wrap up another memorable year of music-making and wonderful events, we are looking forward to our annual Orchestra Banquet where we honor our student musicians and highlight our graduating seniors.
We are looking forward to this celebratory evening of fellowship with our orchestra families!
Sincerely,
Carol Doemel
Koji Mori
