Fourth Grade Parent Concert Opportunity

Hello Fourth Grade Families!

As you may know, your children have been working hard and having fun in music class
preparing for our very exciting “LINK UP” concert with the West Michigan Symphony
Orchestra on April 20th at 11:00 am. This is an amazing interactive concert where the students will actually get to sing and play along with the symphony! This memorable event takes place in the beautiful Frauenthal Theater in Muskegon.

In years past, we have been able to allow only 2 adult chaperones per classroom on
this event. Some who wanted to attend could not. However, this year,
(due to the addition of another concert time for different schools) the symphony was
able to offer additional seating for more parents with a “Parent Voucher.” This voucher,
along with a $5.00 admission fee, will guarantee a seat in the upper balcony of the
theater for this concert. The $5.00 fee will help cover a portion of the concert cost and
insure that “LINK UP” will continue to be offered to all area 4th graders free of charge.

In order to guarantee a seat for the concert on April 20th at 11:00 am, please stop by the
music room to get your voucher for the concert. You may also e-mail me and I can make arrangements to have the voucher sent home with your child. On concert day, simply present
your voucher and $5.00 to the ticket booth for your seat. These vouchers will be
available starting on March 1, 2011.

People who pick up a voucher will be expected to use them. Georgetown Elementary will only
be given a limited amount of vouchers for this event. If you have a change in plans, please inform Mrs. Bretz no later than April 11th so that someone else may use it.

I am excited about this opportunity for more families to share in the joy of music in our
community! Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

I look forward to "linking up" with you!
