The Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra will continue to cultivate relationships with regional string programs and instructors. Due to the fact that this is a summer concert, we will be concentrating on programs that go all year round: Little Falls (St Francis), and Jessica Bash, concert mistress' students in Sauk Centre. Student Tickets will be sent to these programs (we will send out a letter in June, then send student tickets 2 weeks before the concert along with posters). The Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra and the Long Prairie Drive-In will be working together again this year. The Drive-In will be offering a discount to the Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra audience members who attend the summer concert in Sauk Centre or Long Prairie. The movie after the Long Prairie concert will have a theme that will match our Celebration of Childhood." Goal 3: The Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra will seek funding/sponsorship again from our fellow Chamber of Commerce members. Emails and letters will be sent out to businesses in the Chamber. We will raise a minimum of $1,000 for the Celebrating Childhood concert. The Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra will continue to cultivate relationships with regional string programs and instructors.
