Group Tickets: Ceremony of Carols
Dear members,
At last night's board meeting, it was decided that we would not sell group tickets for the Ceremony of Carols concerts. This is mainly due to the amount of expenses to produce the concert and the limited seating in the Sanctuary of Gilmore Park United Church. We appreciate your understanding, thank you.
Social Media Tutorials
In an effort to keep the cost of marketing low, we are moving towards digital marketing and away from print. A page in the Members' Zone has been created with tutorials on how to forward our e-newsletters through email as well as share our events and invite your friends through Facebook.
Please take a look and please share or invite your friends to our first concert, Russian Romantics on October 29, 2016 - the Facebook event page could use a little social media help: https://www.facebook.com/events/1653817431596334/
Thank you!
MIDI Files: Website Page Created for Sound Files
Searching the blog for each MIDI file can be frustrating - so we've decided to create a separate page for this in the Members' Zone. All sound files are organized by concert and will be the most update-to-date versions.
