We're confident that having ridden on the AABC bus many times during your years as a singer, you understand the value and importance of the bus to the Chorus's success. If AABC alumni are like members of other organizations, then only 20% will give the $5 a month - and that won't be enough to meet the increasing costs of the bus.īut we don't think AABC alumni are like members of other organizations. Multiplied by all of our alumni, $5 a month would be a HUGE help to the Chorus. It's about the cost of a frappuccino at Starbucks, a Big Mac meal at McDonald's, or a few songs from I-tunes. And yet $5 a month is really pretty affordable. We got to thinking about the bus costs, and came up with the idea that if each AABC alumnus donates $5 a month to our Bus Fund, it would be an enormous help with the increasing costs of the bus. Insurance is also up along with the cost of maintenance (repair facilities keep increasing labor rates). Fuel has gone from $1.50 to $3.00 a gallon. We have to pay for fuel, insurance, maintenance, repairs and drivers.Įach year bus costs go up. In an effort to keep up with ever-rising costs of operating and maintaining our bus, we've started an Alumni Bus Fund.Įven though having our own AABC bus is cheaper than renting busses, it's still a big part of our budget. ![]() ![]() ![]() $5 a month will help keep us "on the road" Please RSVP to Tony Manrique at or (714) 708-1670 x11.
