You have your tickets for a 2011 TD Bank Summer Festival Tour concert. You have decided on your picnic dinner menu, the perfect wine pairing, and your lawn chairs are in the car. You wake up on the day of the concert and there are a few clouds in the sky. Will the concert be outdoors? We receive an inundation of calls in our office from concertgoers wondering if we are going to be outdoors or indoors. Here is a guide to learning about this important decision that happens each concert day.
1. Wait. We make our rain calls at different times each day, but we absolutely make a decision by 3 p.m.
2. Check the web. We will post our rain decision on the website (www.vso.org -- check the scrolling calendar in the bottom left hand column) and on our Facebook page.
3. Listen to the radio. We report our rain call decisions to local radio stations and VPR. Listen in for an announcement.
4. Pick up the phone. Call the VSO office at (800) 876-9293 and listen to the main outgoing message. We update this information daily during the tour.
5. Get directions. If we are going inside, links to Google maps of the rain sites can be found on the event pages.
We'll see you there!
