Business, Patron, Legislator, Volunteer
2017-2018

The TASO Awards of Excellence are awarded to a business, patron, legislator, and volunteer (4 awards given) in recognition of outstanding service, support, and promotion
of the interests and growth of symphony orchestras.

• The Business Award is given to a business that has shown exceptional service, support and/or promotion of the interests and growth of a symphony orchestra
• The Patron Award is given to a person who has given financial support to a symphony orchestra, but not necessarily been active in the member organization
• The Legislator Award is given to a person who has shown support for the arts as a legislator

It is imperative that a representative from the nominating organization and the winner be present at the ceremony during the annual conference in San Angelo (April 19-
21, 2018). The ceremony is usually the first night of conference. If the winner cannot be present, he or she should be represented by someone with whom he or she
works or by a family member. The nominating member organization is responsible for the expense of the winner to attend the awards dinner.
