Each summer for the last five years, the symphony has perform- ed at local parks, beaches and mountains, in an effort to raise its profile in the community, and last year thousands packed into Cates Park to hear it play. “They’ve been wonderful,’’ Soobis says of the summer con- certs. ‘“‘White Rock is expecting 50,000 people this year.’’ The culmination of the 1992 summer series will take place at Whistler mountain on Aug. 8.
