Northern Utah Symphony Tuacahn 2017 Tour Fundraising Opportunities
December – January: Sponsor a Musician Donation Campaign
A PDF flyer will be emailed to each musician. Musicians take these flyers out to family and friends both near and far and invite them to help send you on this trip! Just think…if you can find 10 people to donate the "cost of a lunch/dinner" you have made your first tour deposit due January 14, 2017! Don't forget family and friends that live out of the area too! There will be a Parent Tour Meeting in January. Watch your email for more details!
January – February: Honeyville Hot Chocolate
Friends and family can take the chill off a long winter with delicious hot chocolate made locally! Sales start in January with the second deposit due February 18, 2017.

NUYS: Volunteers, Party, and Safety
Our volunteer collaboration has been updated to reflect the need for parents to lead the effort for fundraising for the tour. Debra Francis has some great resources for you, but she needs others to be in charge of this (and so do I). I've split it into monthly committees. With the lower amount for tour, it may be deemed necessary to combine some committees, once the sign up is complete.If you can't make the spreadsheet work for you, just email me and let me know where you want your name. I'll put it on!
Next week, Dec 17, is our combined Christmas Party after rehearsal, until 12:30pm. I haven't done anything about this, but be sure to plan to bring a treat (sweet or savory) to share, and an interesting, intriguing, wrapped, no-money-spent white elephant gift for our game. Creative is awesome!
Those who volunteered to help with the Christmas Party, please set aside the time to come early to set up (perhaps 10 am). Each year Doris brings table cloths and dishes to set out the food, and also decorations for the table. If there is a different volunteer that could head this up, I think Doris would be thrilled to hand off the effort to someone else.
Last, but most important, please don't come tomorrow if you are in danger. I think the weather will be okay, that the storm is warming today and will be more like rain tonight and tomorrow morning, and won't go back to snow until Saturday night, but if you are in danger where you live, please be safe and stay home! I don't think we are at the point of canceling, however.Just let me know if you're not coming so we know you're safe.

NUYS Is Awesome!
Great great great concert! Wonderful comments from many people! Thanks to everyone who helped, thanks to our sponsors, and thanks for turning in your folders. I have every folder! A wonderful miracle! I hope you've all had a wonderful holiday break.
A few notes on concert attire while I'm thinking about it: Please note that our boys wear black jackets and black bow ties. Our girls wear black nylons or trouser socks. It looked like most people got the message; however, a few didn't quite catch some of the black or bow tie details. The outfit for youth symphony is different from chamber. Please check the DI for black suit jackets! It doesn't need to be a huge expense, but it can be a big headache if you wait until the day of our next performance.
