| There are no borders in space! Join Astronaut Benjamin Alvin Drew as he visits Penticton for this one time only presentation. Colonel Drew flew onboard Space Shuttle Endeavour on mission STS-118 in August 2007. He is currently in training to fly on STS-133 onboard the Space Shuttle Discovery. This mission is scheduled to be the LAST SPACE SHUTTLE LAUNCH EVER taking place on September 16, 2010. Do not miss this opportunity to meet Alvin and learn first- hand why humans explore space, the amazing training it takes to prepare for a mission and what the future of human spaceflight holds.
Alvin knew he wanted to be an astronaut the day his Principal brought a TV into the classroom to watch the Apollo Astronauts land on the moon when he was 5 1/2 years old. He is a testament that dreams really do come true! Come share the dream and be a part of Alvin’s space exploration adventure!
Free for PSO, $ 5 advance tickets, $ 10 at the door.

| The OSO is turning fifty in 2010, & we invite you to join the party. We look back to our beginnings by re-creating our very first concert program performed under the baton of orchestra founder Willem Bertsch in 1060. This is a wonderful mix of popular classics. To make our celebration extra special, Rosemary will share the stage with orchestra alumni as well as previous Directors...

| Our 50th Anniversary season opens with the world premiere of Quaternity, by our own world-renowned Imant Raminsh, written for the same orchestral & choral collaboration as the Beethoven. Earthshattering when first performed, Beethoven's Ninth remains an astonishing & majestic triumph today. Culminating with the Ode to Joy, the Ninth explodes convention by combining the forces of massed chorus & orchestrea & will leave you transformed.
