Traditionally, patrons provide a large portion of the opera's needs. Half of the opera's $6000 budget this year comes from patrons who are mainly members of the Lowell Senior Common Room; ticket and program sales pay for the rest.

A onetime minister, he earns his living on the motivational lecture circuit (and last year ran for President on the Populist Party ticket). Now the only man ever to take the Olympic pole-vaulting gold twice (1952, 1956) is back on the track in Waco, Texas, preparing for the World Veteran Games in Rome later this year.
