As Thanksgiving draws near, the 1891 Fredonia Opera House would once again love to hear from you about why you’re thankful to have the Opera House in this community. Nov. 12th marks the opera house’s 26th anniversary, and we want other people to know why you enjoy and appreciate what the Opera House has contributed to the Northern Chautauqua county region for all these years. As we did last year, we’ve set up a special number for you to call in and leave your voice message of thanks for the Opera House. Please prepare your messages in advance, and keep your messages about 30 seconds long so we can get in as many as possible. The number to call is 716-608-9802. Once again, 716-608-9802. Information and the number will also be available in the show notes for this podcast. The deadline for recording your message is Friday, Nov. 18th. Your messages will be included with the Nov. 23 Thanksgiving edition of this podcast. We look forward to your contribution.
