Concerts for the year included the Cluster Concert at Shepton, in October, the winter concert at Plano Senior High in December, a concert in December at Collin Creek Mall, the Spring Fling Concert in May. Raising funds for the orchestra was done through candy sales, car washes and selling pecans in coordina- tion with the Vines Band. The group hosted the Shepton Orchestra in Novem- ber with a hay ride and bonfire. The year culminated with the District Banquet on May 23.
