Elliot Wilcox retired as our Director in May, 2023. He has been with us since 2001 and we're going to miss him so much! We wish him a long and delightful retirement...well-deserved!

Long-time flutist, Barbara Wohlferd, also retired. She has been with the CCO since the first concert in 1976! She and her husband, Ken, hosted a retirement party at their lovely home. 
Cardinal Royal Mountain Ash, gift to Barbara from Ted and Mona. Elliot gave her a squirrel-proof bird feeder, and Reggie made her a shawl.

The CCO gave Elliot a gift card for Minnesota Orchestra tickets and everyone got a coffee mug with Elliot's picture and years with us on it. 

Reggie also made a shawl for Elliot.
