Hey PYSO Families!
Want to have a great meal and help earn money for PYSO? Check this out:
For ONE DAY ONLY, Panda Express Restaurant group has generously partnered with PYSO to help us fundraise. On TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27TH, simply print out and bring the attached flier to one of two Panda Express Locations and enjoy a quick bite for lunch, dinner or after rehearsal snack and Panda Express will donate 20% of your bill to PYSO!
The two participating locations are:
Panda Express
218 S. Lake Ave.
Pasadena CA. 91001
(626) 799-7710
Panda Express inside Pavillions
745 W. Naomi Ave, Acadia
(626) 626-821-9407
Please pass these fliers along to any friends or family who might be interested. If you know someone who works near one of the location, ask them to pass it out to their co-workers. You can also print a few extra and keep them in your car to hand out to friends as you go about your day. While we cannot solicit diners at the restaurant, we can pass these fliers along to as many people as we like. This fundraiser costs us nothing and can help us keep PYSO expenses down. There are currently over 150 families in PYSO. If everyone goes to Panda Express on SEPTEMBER 27 and spends just $35, that’s over a $1,000 to help PYSO. Every little bit helps as we plan what is sure to be one of the most exciting years PYSO has ever seen!
Additional fliers will be available at the first rehearsal
Have a great last week off and we will see you next Tuesday!

Pasadena Youth Symphony Orchestra

The Pasadena Youth Symphony Orchestra has continually offered robust musical training and personal development for young musicians throughout the San Gabriel Valley for over 40 years (1972). PYSO is considered among the best youth orchestras in the Southland. The PYSO is comprised of middle school students from grades six through nine. These committed young people receive advanced instruction and challenging music opportunities through a rigorous program that emphasizes ensemble playing. Members of the PYSO have performed throughout the world, including venues in Vienna, New York’s Carnegie Hall, the ASTA Conference and Competition in Santa Clara and many others. Last season, the PYSO appeared in concert with the United States Air Force Academy Band, Blue Steel at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, CO. Members of PYSO have also had many opportunities for additional performances outside the full orchestra program such chamber music at Pasadena Symphony concerts and a special guest appearance on Fox’s TV sensation, Glee. PYSO falls under the auspices of the Pasadena Symphony Association and often interacts with Pasadena Symphony and POPS conductors, guest artists, musicians and staff.
