Pueblo, CO 81003
Dear Tracey,
The Pueblo Choral Society is most grateful for the support which City Council gave us for our
inaugural Old Fashioned Christmas concert which we presented last December at Memorial
Hall. As you may recall, this was a FREE Christmas event which brought the public together to
celebrate this special time of year. It was a great success! Attendance was impressive.
As we embark on our 36th Season, titled The Power of Music, we would like to again have our
Christmas Concert at Memorial Hall. We will be inviting a variety of local musical groups to join
us, including other choirs and local brass and string ensembles. You are most certainly aware
that there are many costs involved in using this venue. The Pueblo Choral Society is a non-profit
organization whose members are all volunteers. Therefore, we rely on the generous donations
of our sponsors and advertisers, in addition to ticket sales, to present quality concerts to the
community.
In order to produce this special concert, we humbly ask the City Council to support us with
$6,500.00. This will allow us to cover the expenses of Memorial Hall, as well as the hiring of
some additional performing groups. I am enclosing a copy of last year's invoice from Spectra. Kevin
Ortiz has assured us the cost would remain the same as last year.
We greatly appreciate your thoughtful consideration of our request and value your support in
making this concert possible.
Sincerely,
Judith _'-t. al�istal1
Judith A. Hastall
Past President
