Dedication of the William J. Sweeney Performance Hall
Sunday, June 5th, 2011 at 3:00pm
The Arlington Music Department will host a special concert and dedication ceremony on Sunday, June 5th, beginning at 3pm, in the William J. Sweeney Performance Hall. The concert will celebrate the new auditorium and will pay tribute to Dad and the many ensembles and programs that he created during his 32 years at Arlington. The concert is free and open to the public, but we ask that you kindly send an email to krizzo@acsdny.org if you plan to attend, so that Arlington staff and the Band Boosters may have a better estimate on the number of guests to expect.
Rich Guillen, a current Arlington music teacher, reports “Jazz Machine, Wind Ensemble, Philharmonia Strings, Concert Choir and several small ensembles will all be performing in this dedication event. Lots of special things planned for this event!”
Linda, Lauri, Jill, and Tara will all be traveling to LaGrangeville to attend the concert and dedication ceremony along with 20 other Sweeney family members—ranging in ages 4 to 75! If you are in the area, we hope that you will consider joining us at this celebration of the new auditorium and of Dad’s contributions to music and music education at Arlington.
Through Facebook, we have learned of many old friends who will be attending. But we know that not everyone is hooked into Facebook, so please help spread the word. Feel free to forward this link to friends, and let us know if you (or your family who might still live in the community) plan to attend so we can be sure to look out for you.
