MISSION
Young men and women in high school are offered the opportunity
for cultural, leadership and social growth through service and
financial support to the Symphony, the League and the community
Debs and Honor Guards are poised representatives of the RSL at
community service functions and as escorts at the symphony
concerts.
Highlight of the year is the Richardson Symphony Ball.
Service + Arts + Leadership = College Resume Winner

COMMITMENTS
Young men and women must be active participants and earn the
required points through service participation and meeting attendance
Each debutante and honor guard must be sponsored by an Active
Member of the Richardson Symphony League. A parent is preferred,
but other adults may serve as sponsors.
A primary purpose of RSL is to raise money for the RSO. Financial
obligations by the debs/honor guards and RSL members are necessary.
