Symphony in C Celebrates its 70th Anniversary

Symphony in C will celebrate its 70th Anniversary on Sunday, April 24, 2022 from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. at Tavistock Country Club. Founded in 1952 as the Haddonfield Symphony, Symphony in C began as a community orchestra whose mission has evolved into a young professionals training orchestra and comprehensive music education organization serving people of all ages in Camden and the region. Symphony in C performs at Rutgers-Camden Center for the Arts and other venues and contributes to the quality of life we enjoy in Greater South Jersey.

The 70th Anniversary Gala will be chaired by Penny and Stephen E. Ryan of Marlton and Rosie Hymerling of Haddonfield. Emcee will be former Haddonfield Mayor and Symphony in C Board Chair Jack Tarditi. Guests will enjoy cocktails, gourmet dinner with wine, and entertainment by pianist David Zipse and the Elegance Electric String Quartet. Symphony in C will observe Tavistock Country Club’s Covid protocols in effect at the time of the event.

The gala will honor Archer & Greiner’s Charles (Chuck) Heuisler, Esq. and C. Carney (Chick) Savery, who were both instrumental in guiding the former Haddonfield Symphony from community orchestra to the music education powerhouse it is today. The event will also remember former Board Chairs and Archer & Greiner attorneys Robert R. Kugler and Lee Hymerling, who both passed away in July 2021.

Proceeds from the gala will support the Symphony’s Summer Camp, Youth Orchestra, concerts for young people, and after-school instrumental music programs in Camden and the region. For gala reservations and information, call Denise C. Stuart, Vice President of Development 856 240-1503 or dstuart@symphonyinc.org. Symphony in C is a New Jersey 501-c-3 Nonprofit Organization.
