Check out our new building improvements

Categories:

So, this is my site!

The raise the roof idea got started when I was volunteering at my site in June. My supervisor had just gotten a grant to fix the roof. I suggested we send out a letter to our lists, asking them to help us "raise the roof" and donate matching funds to improve our performance venue.

Well, now it is the brochure cover for the fall season schedule and an entire campaign. It is funny how one idea can become a big idea, almost before you realize what is happening.

Anyway, I will report back with more about all of the challenges we faced this week, getting a grant report out, getting the season schedule out, getting the database updated for the mailing, and getting ready for the barn raising!

over and out,

I definitely need to get over there and see it for myself. Congrats on getting the ball rolling with the 'raise the roof' campaign.

Thanks Billy! here is a shot of our building in action

I'm working on a reel right now for the barnraising this weekend. It is interesting to go back and watch all of the pieces we've produced over the years.

PS people are welcome to visit anytime. We still have the boats in the water right now and our season starts on October 1st!

Awesome, We are in the process of getting structural engineers to look at termite damage that has made our location unsafe. We are waiting on a bid for the work but we started a building brick campaign to raise funds. We will be where you are soon.
The fixin up stage.
I will visit someday.
