get together and work together for

Carnegie Hall 1990 Membership
and Fund Raising Drive to Begin!
May 1 marked the kick-off of the
Carnegie Hall's, the areas educa-
tional and cultural organization, an-
nual membership and fund raising
drive. This year's goal: $150,000!
Money raised from the drive will be
used for operating and programming
costs, restoration work, and the en-
dowment fund. "We're very excited
about this year's drive," said Carne-
gie President, Sue Sailor, "because
we believe the 1990s will be a Ren-
aissance decade for the hall. The
ground work has been laid, an ac-
tive calendar of live performances

and classes has been scheduled
and word of the hall is spreading
fast."
Preparations for the drive have
been made through the Finance
Committee headed by Wallace
Westfeidt and Treasurer Martha
Sams. To make giving even easier
this year, VISA and MasterCard are
now accepted at the Hall and a
pledge system (with quarterly billing)
is in place.
"Now that the future of Carnegie
Hall is secure, with a new lease --
including more land around the
building itself for our future reiand-
scaping plans -- from the State of
West Virginia in process, we're very
optimistic about the future of the
Hall," indicated Executive Director of
the hall, Vivian Conly. "This is such
an extraordinary facility -- it has tre-
mendous potential to improve the
quality of life we enjoy in the Green-
brier Valley and to have a very posi-
tive impact on the economic devel-
opment of the region."
Many different levels of participa-
tion in Carnegie Hall are offered. All
donations to Carneg e Hall are tax
deductible; all donations of $10 or
more include membership in the or-
ganization. "There are definite bene-
fits to membership, for example: in-
clusion on the mailing list (inoluding
the bi-monthly Carnegie Hall News),
discounts on season passes, and an
invitation to the annual members'
picnic," Ms Conly said. If you are
interested, please call 645-7917.
