Website hosting expenses are also included. Total other expenses for the year were $1,130. Schedule O ? Other Matters Related to Operations: Fiscal Year 2024 represented a return to a routine concert season with a full slate of 3 concerts for the year. This follows the suspension of orchestra operations during the COVID?19 pandemic. Audience attendance has been slow to return to pre?pandemic levels. During the year, two new board members joined the Orchestra, including a Vice President and a Treasurer. The Orchestra completed its 98th season, which was also the second?to?last season of its current conductor and music director. While the organization continues to function effectively as a small, close?knit group, the Board recognizes that upcoming leadership transitions and the approach of the Orchestras 100th season present an opportunity for growth. In anticipation of this milestone, the Board is evaluating and documenting governance processes, key operational tasks, and areas for improvement to support long?term sustainability.
