200 Club

Next to the selling of concert tickets the 200 Club is the Orchestra's main fund raising activity and needs your support.
For the past four years the membership has numbered 250 and we hope to maintain this level.
The participation of all members is greatly appreciated by the Orchestra and helps us to provide local people with high quality entertainment with your subscription to the Treasurer as soon as possible.
