Concert Highlights

California Youth Symphony shared the spotlight with three ballets performed by Jewel Ballet of San Mateo directed by Mme. Olga Ziceva. The purpose of this youth symphony-ballet collaboration was to benefit the worthy organization Parent's Association for Retarded Children (PARC) of San Mateo County.  Funds raised by these concerts afforded PARC to continue its year-round training schedule in aiding special children in adjusting to society.

Pearce-Florist of Burlingame donated stage decorations for this event.
