All proceeds raised fund expenses such as instruments; scholarships for camps, tours, and lessons; sectional instructors; printing costs; receptions; and music copyright fees, and other needs of the Orchestra programs as identified by the Orchestra Director and POPS officers.

Afterward, the group explored Nashville, attended concerts, and participated in a songwriting workshop led by singer Meghan Linsey, where they created their own song.
