Citizen's Committee Meeting Minutes, 1966-1977

This series contains the minutes of meetings of the Board of Directors, 1950-1987, which describe concert programming and the appearance of guest artists, rehearsal schedules and attendance, remuneration to conductors and orchestra personnel, publicity, concert attendance, and fund raising. The minutes of Citizens Committee meetings date from 1961-1983. Records from the 1950s were not included in this addition. The minutes deal primarily with the Committee's responsibility for fund raising. Their largest fund-raiser from 1960 to 1982 was the annual Symphony Ball held with a varying degree of success. The minutes of the Board of Trustees, 1983-1987 reflect the changed organizational make-up of the Symphony Association and delineate the functioning of the various appointed committees. Series III also contains a small amount of correspondence.
