I HATE HAMLET
Director Jan Mitchell
Auditions will be late summer— keep watching.
Henry A. Perkins, a mild mannered C.P.A, accidently picks up the wrong briefcase one full of money. Henry assumes it is illicit cash and he decides to keep it.

Our Board of Directors is set up with 7 members, elected for 2-year terms. Each Summer, the board then organizes itself i.e. elect the President, V. Pres., Treasurer, Sec. To these, the president appoints up to 6 more members in counsel with the elected board members. This year the Board members whose terms are up include: Marie Murray, Lori Nussle, June Ryl-Kuchar, and Marie Whitney. So there are 4 positions to be filled. These members are eligible to run again. The nominating committee is Peg Crawford and Dave Groebe who will present a slate. If you are interested in serving on the board or nominating someone, Call one of them. Nominations can also be made that night.
