FAREWELL TO SOME DEAR FRIENDS AND SSO ROYALTY

Our May concert was bittersweet as the orchestra bid farewell to two retiring long time members (and SSO royalty!) with over 50 years of service each! We will greatly miss both of them; their leadership and contributions have set SSO up for success for years to come:  Bonnie Svetlik, principal flute and steering committee chair (former president, programming committee chair and long-serving board member) and Richard Polster, French horn and finance committee (former treasurer and long-serving board member)
