Our concerts and rehearsals are held in several locations in Chapel Hill, including University United Methodist Church, United Church of Chapel Hill, Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, and New Hope Camp and Conference Center. In these locales, our conductor and accompanist have sometimes struggled to see, handle music, and be heard.Thus,we are requesting$9,500 to purchase four pieces of equipment that will benefit Dr. Friedman, Ms.Whelan, and the chorus itself.These items are: 1) a portable conductor's podium, 2)a conductor's music stand, 3)a good piano lamp, and 4)a small amplification system for use in various rehearsal and concert spaces. 9991968-2011—P.O.Box 1 977, 939 West Margaret Lane,Hillsborough, NG 27278—www.artsorange.org
