50th Season Fund Drive Results

As we began to approach our 50th season, a small group of volunteers gathered for a brainstorming session. The group came up with a long wish list, but perhaps the biggest dream was to raise $50,000 to fund renovations for our theatre. Never in our wildest dreams did we think that we’d meet that goal, but we have actually surpassed it, raising a total of $58,017 to date. We are forever grateful to our generous donors!
