Hundreds of community volunteers of all ages
have been engaged by the Heartland Symphony
Orchestra over the years to fill a variety
of important roles. In fact, the orchestra
is primarily made up of volunteer musicians
and is governed by an all volunteer board
of directors. The orchestra also has a group
of dedicated community volunteers called “The
Classics”, which consists of
trained and dependable volunteers who can
be called on to help out whenever needed.
HSO volunteers can assist in the following
areas of service and more.
Concert Ushers
Ticket Sales
Stagehands
Fundraising
Hospitality

Clerical Tasks
Bulk Mailings

Many of these
roles are essential to carrying out the HSO’s
public activities, and all are essential to
running a busy community orchestra in an organized
and professional manner. To become a member
of “The Classics”
or for more information about volunteering
for these or other activities of the HSO call
toll free to 1-800-826-1997 or email to info@heartlandsymphony.org,
leave your message, and the appropriate person
will contact you.

Because many of our orchestra
players, conductor and audience members drive
a considerable distance to attend concerts
and rehearsals, we have developed this cancellation
policy and procedure so all can stay informed
should we have to cancel an activity.
By 3:00 p.m. the day of an evening concert
or rehearsal, the Conductor, Concertmaster
and Orchestra Manager will determine if the
scheduled activity needs to be canceled due
to inclement weather conditions. For afternoon
dress rehearsals and matinee concerts that
determination will be made by 10:00 a.m.
Once it is determined
that an Orchestra Concert or Rehearsal needs
to be canceled due to inclement weather, a
cancellation message will be recorded on the
HSO’s Office Cell Phone, 1-800-826-1997.
If weather conditions appear questionable,
players and audience members should call this
number to learn if the activity has been canceled.
A message will also be left with the Custodian
at the respective school. In the event that
a public concert needs to be canceled, the
HSO Business Manager will also notify area
media to announce the cancellation.
The
HSO very rarely cancels a concert performance,
but should that be necessary for the safety
of those involved, tickets can be used if
there is a make-up performance or for another
HSO concert during the season. Refunds may
also be arranged by mailing your ticket with
the amount paid indicated on it to: HSO,
PO Box 241, Little Falls, MN 56345
