Please be notified that on 03/14/2025, the Board of Directors of the Dunedin Music Society, Inc. (DMS) unanimously agreed to dissolve the organization in accordance with the DMS Constitution, Section 1.11 and Fla. Stat. ยง 617.1402(2). DMS Members are not required to vote on dissolution.
There will be no further activities or gatherings of any ensembles, groups, or members, effective immediately.
Within the next ninety days, the Board will terminate all current financial commitments, pay any outstanding debts, create a plan to distribute the organization's assets (including registered ensemble names) to one or more existing 501(c)(3) organizations of its choosing, submit the State of Florida Articles of Dissolution, and file a final IRS Form 990.
The Board is saddened by the events of the past year or two that have led to this decision, and is heartened by the live music we were able to offer thousands of musicians, audiences, volunteers and residents of Pinellas County through hundreds of events for almost a decade (44 years including the full lifespan of the Dunedin Concert Band). We rest assured there will continue to be a great many opportunities for all musical styles and personal expectations, for many years to come.
Onward!
Dunedin Music Society, Inc.
