First United Methodist Church’s Pavilion overlooking the Tennessee River was a picturesque setting for the Knoxville Symphony League New Member Coffee. New and prospective members were greeted by KSL Board incoming President, Becky Benedict, the Orchestra’s CEO, Rachel Ford and Development Director, Josh Thornton. As attendees enjoyed refreshments, the committee chairmen provided an overview of the year’s upcoming events, including the Ball and Elegant Dining events. The League donates over $200,000 a year to the Orchestra through their fund-raising efforts.
