+1 # Les Halliwell 2011-06-13 08:52 Our community is looking forward to this event with great anticipation. In all our dealings with the ESO, they have been top drawer and have exceeded our expectations. This will conclude and wrap up our 100th anniversary celebrations. What a way to celebrate. Come and join with us in a great evening of music and culture. As chairman of the special events we see it as our crowning event. Reply | Reply with quote | Quote

0 # Bill Lauterbach 2011-09-15 16:23 I am a retired music teacher in Edson, having taught in the public school system for 33 years. I was so pleased to be on the panel of judges to help choose one of Edson's many extremely talented musicians to perform with the ESO. What a concert this will be — Edson's own Alison Kilgannon joining the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra for one great musical evening in Edson! Many thanks to Chairman Les Halliwell who worked so hard to make this happen. Reply | Reply with quote | Quote
