From the Board President
Hi All,
As a Reminder, no Rehearsal next week - we will start up on the 29th.
Also, GivingTuesday is on the 29th, so as I mentioned in our last rehearsal, it would be great if y'all can help with getting friends and family to donate to ASB. Our goal is $5000.
Y'all have a great Thanksgiving!!

Hello, ASB Family!
GivingTuesday is just around the corner on November 29th from 6am to 6pm! Our GT webpage is LIVE — check it out here! Feel free to forward or refer friends to this page for more information about our annual fundraiser. Check here and social media on 11/29 to track our giving progress toward our goal, which we will update throughout the day.
I’ll say it again, our membership (YOU) are by far the most influential strategy we have to spread the word and to advocate for ASB! If every member was able to raise $55 for ASB, we’d meet our goal. Take a moment to think about who is in your network of friends, family, coworkers, etc. that you could invite this year to support us. Support can be many different things: volunteer, like us on social media, follow us on YouTube, come to a concert, donate, etc.. Check if your employer has a matching gift program or giving incentives. As we approach 11/29, please share and forward our email and social media announcements to your network and don’t forget to mention what this organization means to you!
Wishing you all a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving week!

From the Assistant Music Director
Hello Everyone,
Thanks for a very productive rehearsal last Tuesday. We made significant progress on a lot of music. Again, the goal was to build better basics of the music, which will hopefully inspire you to find some time to individually prepare for our next time together.
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday. We certainly have a lot to be thankful for.

Hi ASB!
Many thanks to Bill for leading rehearsal this past Tuesday - he reported back that it was a productive practice session, and we both feel as though the program is a good fit for us!
I look forward to seeing you all when we resume rehearsals on November 29. I hope you all have a restful and rewarding Thanksgiving break - I am most certainly thankful for the opportunity to join the ASB family, and I wish you all the very best!
Sincerely,
-Kyle Glaser director@austinsymphonicband.org
