Symphony New Brunswick is hoping to raise 2.5 million dollars to hire five full-time string musicians. The organization is asking the town of Rothesay for a one thousand dollar operating grant and a pledge of ten thousand dollars over five years. Spokesperson, Dr. Thomas Condon says the money would help them add to their orchestra, as well as help pay for travel.
The request has been referred to Rothesay's finance committee for budget deliberations.
