The Beaufort Orchestra League
The Beaufort Orchestra League is the volunteer organization that conducts fundraisers and events that help to raise community awareness of the Beaufort Orchestra and the Youth Orchestra. The League is an in-house organization created to serve under direction of the Beaufort Orchestra Board.
The purpose is three-fold:
- PROJECTS: Three or four fundraising projects such as the very successful "Tea at Tidewater" are planned September thru May. Our aim is to raise money for ongoing needs of both orchestras as well as to showcase musicians and concerts to the community.
EDUCATION: The education committee works to stimulate interest in classical music appreciation by community outreach activities such as informal talks in schools and community organizations. The main focus is on the Youth Orchestra to provide opportunities for exposure, scholarships, and instruments.
MEMBERSHIP: The goal is to raise awareness of the orchestras by publicity and expanded membership of the Beaufort Orchestra League.
We do not have regular meetings of the full membership, but work through the various committees. Anyone interested in working for and with either of our orchestras is welcome; contact information at left.
