| Trans Siberian Orchestra |
Every year the Trans Siberian Orchestra hits the highway for their annual winter tour. If you've never been to one of their holiday concerts, you are missing out on some amazing, jaw dropping, head banging music. They have somehow managed to combine opera, orchestra, and heavy metal into one unforgettable performance. Highly recommend!
TSO just isn't about the talent. They GIVE back to the community. Every year, during every concert, in each community they play in, they donate $1.00 from EVERY ticket sold to local charities/organizations. Let me assure you, they sell out the "house". In my area, we are talking TWO concerts with a crowd of 15,000 PLUS.
This year Kaitlin's Cauze decided to contact the radio station that sponsors the TSO concert in our area. The request was simple: please consider choosing the Epilepsy Foundation of Central PA as a recipient of this year's donation. What better way to raise epilepsy awareness than in front of a crowd of thousands? WINK 104's John O'Dea came through and the request was approved!
Our local Epilepsy Foundation has been notified and will handle the details. We are hoping the news of this donation was a nice surprise for them. We appreciate what the foundation does for the epilepsy community and this is our way of saying "THANK YOU".If you live in the area, make sure you catch one of the concerts at the Giant Center in Hershey, PA on November 20th. Make some noise when the check is presented! Maybe we'll see you there!
Kaitlin,
ReplyDeleteSurprised? We all think that you ROCK the house! What a fantastic job you've done! We can't thank you enough for your efforts. This is a phenomenal opportunity for raising awareness about epilepsy and, November is Epilepsy Awareness Month so we couldn't be more thrilled.
You are the best and inspiration to us all!!!!
