Fall Opener at the Senate Theater Saturday, September 13 9:30 a.m. Featuring
the Mighty 4/34 Wurlitzer Theater Pipe Organ Opus 1953 (1928) from the Fisher
Theater
The eighth
largest organ built by Wurlitzer, the instrument is largely untouched from
the original design and has been lovingly cared for by the Detroit Theatre Organ Society. We are visiting
the Senate Theater through the courtesy of the Detroit Theater Organ Society
and its President, Christopher Dengate. 6424 Michigan Avenue Parking is available off of Gilbert Street about one block North
of Michigan Avenue and West of Livernois. There is an entrance to the
Theater right off the parking lot walking around the building is not
involved. We solicit your
ideas for meeting venues in the Michigan and Northwestern Ohio area. E-mail us your suggestions.

Chapter
Bylaws A vote on the draft bylaws was held pursuant to
the process ratified at the September 2007
meeting. Use your browser's "Back" button
to return from the links on this page. Thirty-two ballots were mailed to the paid-up
active members. Nineteen members responded with “Yes” votes, approving the
bylaws. Eleven members did not respond. Two ballots were returned for unknown
addresses. The Bylaws having been approved by 19-0, the
Bylaws are ratified and Chapter dues are now $15. Pay
dues now. We will soon be culling the membership and mailing lists to
eliminate those who are not paid-up members. O.H.S. National Membership The O.H.S. National Headquarters is concerned
that many local Chapter members are not members of the national organization.
We will have brochures and applications at our next meetings and encourage you
to become a national member. If you are in a hurry to join, visit www.organsociety.org. Nearby national
conventions will be held in Cleveland in 2009 and Pittsburgh in 2010, and
these are very interesting, a lot of fun and present a perspective on pipe
organs that is different from the AGO nationals. Browse CaBalettA.com |
