Vermont Symphony Orchestra Honors 2014 Advertising Supporters

The Vermont Symphony Orchestra announced today that more than $10,000 was raised through advertising in the 2014 Program Supplement, a publication produced for the past 22 years by the Southwest Vermont Friends of the VSO.

Alan Jordan, Executive Director of the VSO, in making the announcement, said that the Southwest Program Supplement "...is a good example of local volunteers working with local businesses in support of Vermont's state orchestra. From ad sales to production to printing, this was an all-local effort. The Program Supplement is not just about advertising, it is about enabling this wonderful state orchestra to truly fulfill its mission of 'enriching lives through music'.

"The VSO is celebrating its 80th anniversary this season," Jordan continued. "It is the oldest and one of the most successful state orchestras in the country and can proudly say that it fulfills its core mission of providing significant musical performances, including orchestral, choral, and chamber music, to thousands of listeners each year. Equally important is the role it has crafted in the musical education of young children through its SymphonyKids program, which last year reached more than 30,000 school children throughout Vermont. None of this would be possible without the support of legions of volunteers throughout the state and the financial backing lent to the orchestra by individuals and businesses."

Bomoseen resident, Jennifer Tebbs, chair of the SVFVSO, said that the group was "very grateful" to all of the advertisers who made this year's publication a success. "We owe this group of businesses a big thank-you for its support." She noted that many of the advertisers have been supporting the orchestra for 10 or more years and all are well known area businesses. Our appreciation goes to these advertisers:
