The concert showcases music from “The Little Mermaid,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “Aladdin,” “The Lion King” and more with projected clips, still cells and storyboard art from the files on our state-of-the art LED screens. It’s sure to be an enchanting evening.

Still to come this season is our annual Halloween concert, Hocus Pocus Pops Oct. 24 and annual holiday concert, Holly Jolly Jingle Dec. 4. And you won’t want to miss the 19th Annual Children’s Festival Nov. 8-9. Mark your calendars now.

The Pavilion provides free mezzanine and lawn seating for all our wonderful performing arts events, thanks to our generous sponsors. At all symphonies and at the ballet and opera, guests are welcome to bring a picnic in their seat or on the hill. Lawn chairs also are provided for free at these events. Please take advantage of this free offer and bring your family, friends and neighbors to The Pavilion this season to enjoy an evening under the stars. You will be glad you did.

I am looking forward to a spectacular 25th Season and hope to see you on the hill.

Sponsor Spotlight

local Jeweler Donates Prizes andTime to The Pavilion Partners

The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion is proud to recognize Robichau’s Jewelry as a continued sponsor. John Robichau, owner of the store, has generously donated auction items and prizes to a variety of fundraisers and special events. Past donations include a one carat round black diamond pendant for The Pavilion Partners 2014 Pre-Concert Dinner & Fundraiser.

Robichau’s Jewelry was founded by Jack Robichau in 1986. Family-owned and operated, Robichau’s Jewelry is a full service jewelry store, providing repairs, custom design, bridal and more. It was voted the No. 1 jewelry store in The Woodlands by Woodlands Online in 2013 and 2014.

“My dad started the business and at first I didn’t want to join him in the family business,” Robichau said. “After graduating from college and getting a job in another industry, I realized that my heart wasn’t in it and I talked to my dad about joining him. Now he’s retired and my cousin, uncle, brother and I run the store.”

In addition to donating pieces for auction to Partners fundraisers, Robichau joined Partners, the official volunteer organization of The Pavilion. Robichau serves as president of the Partners board of directors as well as on The Pavilion’s board of directors.

“I love being able to help out a local venue,” Robichau said. “Being able to make connections through The Pavilion helps generate business for the store. I love seeing customers from the store at Partners events. It shows just how close our community really is.”

Robichau also has served as co-chair of the Pre-Concert Dinner & Fun-draiser for the past four years. He cites fundraising as his favorite part of volunteering as a Partner.

“I have such a great group working with me on the Pre-Concert Dinner & Fundraiser,” Robichau said. “I really appreciate everything they do to make the event a success.”

The Pavilion Partners is serving up a cure by participating in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light The Night Walk Nov. 2, 2014, at Market Street – The Woodlands. This is the second year Partners has partici-pated in the event.

Light The Night Walk is a fundraising campaign of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) which brings together families and communities to honor blood cancer survivors, as well as those lost to the diseases, and shine a light on the importance of finding cures and providing access to treatments for blood cancer patients.

“It is important to The Pavilion and Partners give back to the community which gives so much to us,” said Leslie Williams, special events and volunteer coordinator for The Pavilion. “It also is important that we fight against all cancer and one of the ways is to raise money for research. Cancer has affected Pavilion staff and our Partners members and we want to contribute in any way we can.”

Prior to the walk the team is having two fundraising events including a Spirit Night at Jerry Built Homegrown Burgers Sept. 13. Twenty percent of the proceeds go toward the team’s fundraising goal. Then Oct. 3, the team is having a Friday Night Lights Tennis Tournament and Social at The Woodlands Country Club. The fee to participate in the tennis tournament is $50 and to attend the social is $25. There is going to be music, food, margaritas and more at the event.

For more information about Partners orthe fundraisers contact Leslie Williams,volunteer and special events coordinator at 281-210-1125 or lwilliams@woodlandscenter.org.

Background: Moved to The Woodlands, Texas from Chicago in 2001, served on The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion board of directors for nine years, served as chairman from 2008-10.

What is it about The Pavilion that interests you in volunteering? I’ve been going to concerts since I was 12 years old. There’s nothing like live entertainment. I also love the passion that the Mitchells had for bringing the performing arts to our community. The Pavilion is such a driving force in our community. Adults sponsor it, but it’s all for the kids and their families. Music helps kids with their education.

Volunteer Spotlight

by Kevin Sheil

How did you find out about The Pavilion Partners? As a member of The Pavilion’s board of directors, I also joined The Pavilion Partners. After serving nine years on the board, I still wanted to stay involved with The Pavilion.

What was it like being the chairman of the board during the renovation in 2008-09? Before Hurricane Ike hit, the board had already started looking at expansion. The tent had a 20-year lifespan and it was com-ing up on its 19th year. Hurricane Ike hit in Sept. 2008 and completely destroyed the tent. Sponsors and the community came together and paid for it in full, and we reopened after a 5-month rebuild in May 2009. I’m really proud that I was able to be a part of that.

What is your favorite part of being a Partner? The Wine Dinner is every year and it’s so unique to have a nice dinner on The Pavilion stage. The Wine Dinner committee is so dedicated and Randy Lowry is a great leader. All of the education events like Musical Scores and Children’s Festival, I love those too. The students work so hard to be able to go to Musical Scores and it’s so exciting to see them be rewarded for their hard work.

What has been your favorite concert you have attended at The Pa-vilion? Any Jimmy Buffett concert! I loved Aerosmith too. We were so close to them! My girlfriend touched Steven Tyler. Coldplay was great too. They had so many pianos all around the venue.

What other community groups are you involved with? Gerald and I help the Montgomery County Women’s Center. We helped them get their Reaching Pines facility, which allows women to gain life manage-ment skills. We also are involved in the American Heart Association and I’m the president of the Carlton Woods Ladies Golf Association. I am very involved with The John Cooper School as well. Both of my kids graduated from Cooper.

What do you enjoy in your free time? I love to golf! I’ve hit four holes-in-one. That’s a big deal!

The Cynthia Woods Mitchell PavilionSponsors Support the Arts

The Pavilion Welcomes Nordstromto the Community

As a nonprofit performing arts venue, The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilionrelies on the generosity and participation of local businesses and organiza-tions to provide the community with the best performing arts programming in the area. These sponsors contribute in many ways, including monetary donations, providing interactive activities in the plazas during events and supplying volunteers at The Pavilion’s educational outreach programs.

Some sponsors, like Woodforest National Bank, have been supporters of The Pavilion for almost its entire existence. A sponsor for 23 seasons, Woodforest has a presence at each performing arts event and also has the naming rights for The Pavilion’s VIP Club.

“Being a community bank, Woodforest National Bank aligns itself with opportunities to give back to the communities we serve,” said Robert E. Marling, Jr., CEO of Woodforest National Bank. “Through The Pavilion’s performing arts programs, we are able to be a small part of enhancing the cultural enrichment of so many.”

While Woodforest supports the arts through the season, Marling cites Children’s Festival as his favorite Pavilion program.

“It would be hard to choose a favorite, as all programs are exceptional in their genres,” Marling said. “The Annual Children’s Festival, with its vast number of participants, allows even more people to enjoy and

experience a ‘Pavilion moment.’”

Other sponsors have only recently begun supporting The Pavilion’s performing arts events. Most recently, Texas

Children’s Hospital—The Woodlands signed on as the newest performing arts sponsor. “The enrichment provided by The Pavilion’s programs to the com-munity and families in The Woodlands is extremely valuable,” said Lisa Yelenick, director of marketing and

public relations for Texas Children’s Hospital. “Part of Texas Children’s mission is to play an integral role and be

a committed member of the communities where we provide healthcare services.”

Check out “Encore” for a complete list of all our performing arts sponsors. The next time that you enter The Pavilion gates for a performing arts event, make sure to visit the booths in the plazas and thank our sponsors for supporting the arts in your community.

CHIlDRENThe Pavilion is a family-friendly venue and we love to see families at our performing arts events. However, please be courteous of both the orches-tra and those around you by keeping youngsters from talking loudly and running around during the performance. Even if you are seated on the hill, loud children can be very distracting for everyone. We want all of our guests to have the most enjoyable concert experience possible.

ElECTRONIC DEVICES Take a break from the outside world! Please turn off all cellphones and other audible electronics. Photography and videography are NOT allowed during the performances, including with cellphones, at the request of the artists. Tablets, such as iPads and Kindles, are not permitted into the venue because they are a distraction to other guests and the artists.

lATE SEATINgFashionably late? If you arrive after a performance has started, our ushers will do their best to seat you during an appropriate pause in the program. For certain performances, and at the request of the artist, guests seated in the orchestra section might have to wait until a transition is made between songs to proceed to their seats.

DuRINg THE PERFORMANCEGuests should refrain from entering and exiting their seats while a per-formance is in progress. If you must leave your seat, please proceed quickly and quietly to the nearest aisle or ask the nearest usher for assis-tance. Please be courteous to other members of the audience.

APPlAuSENot sure when to applaud and when not to? A good rule of thumb is to watch the conductor. The conductor should let you know when a piece is over by lowering both arms and turning to face the audience.

AFTER THE CONCERTBravo! As the applause dies down, the performers will put their instruments away and leave the stage. The house lights will be turned on so guests can exit safely. TO PICNIC, OR NOT TO PICNIC?Picnics are welcome at all performing arts events at The Pavilion. Guests can bring in any type of food item; however, beverages can not be brought into the venue. Guests are welcome to bring empty water bottles to fill at water fountains or to purchase beverages at our concessions stands.

The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion offers concertgoers live performing arts events in a picturesque setting featuring such world-renowned organizations as the Houston Symphony, Houston Ballet, Houston Grand Opera and Texas Music Festival Orchestra. The following information about concert etiquette will enhance your visit and help ensure that all of our guests enjoy their arts experience to the fullest.
