Middle School Honor Orchestra

The Pikes Peak Middle School Honor Orchestra is a select group of students chosen from the Colorado Springs School District 11 and Widefield School District 2. Students participate in a live audition, and if selected, the students will then participate in three after school rehearsals, a full day orchestral clinic, and an evening concert. This concert will be professional recorded and CD's will available for purchase. The concert will also be recorded for viewing on Comcast Channel 16. The viewing schedule can be found on the District 11 homepage in the red panel under Channel 16.

Congratulations to the students that made the 2007-2008 Pikes Peak Honor Orchestra.

Parents

Dear Pikes Peak Honor Orchestra Parents/Students:

We wanted to let you know that a professional DVD and group photo will be available for your student's upcoming orchestra concert on January 30. We're the official videographers for District 11 schools and we're confident you will be extremely pleased with our work. We specialize in school event DVD's and our work is of the utmost quality. For this event, we will be using multiple cameras which will insure that you will see plenty of close-ups of your student! A professional full color cover will also be produced for your DVD. I know you will treasure this for a lifetime!

Because most students will only be in a few numbers, and because we want all of you to have this product, we are going to offer it at a very low price to encourage volume sales. The DVD will be offered for just $14.00 (instead of our usual $25) plus mailing costs. We do offer a full money back guarantee (less postage fee) if you are unhappy for any reason, so this takes the risk out of purchasing our product. We will have a sales table and order forms available at the event. We hope you will save yourself a stamp and place your order at the event, but you may also mail your order form into our office; the address will be on the order form. Or, if you prefer, you may call us at 719.488.4491 in case you are unable to attend the live event to pick up a form.

Please know we consider working with your children a privilege and we appreciate this opportunity to serve you! We hope you'll participate in our DVD program and enjoy your student's performance for many years to come.

Sincerely,
John Ridgway
