Civic Volunteers at GVU

Civic Theatre will be host to Red Green of "The Red Green Show" July 11, 2010 and to help promote the event, Grand Rapids Civic Theatre volunteers took to the phones! Our time at the phone bank was paired with the promotion of the Red Green event. 17 dedicated Civic folk raised $11,0000 for the GVU station while promoting Civic Theatre on-air for 4 hours during prime time - great exposure for the theatre that without these volunteers would have never happened!

A BIG thank you to the following:
Kriss Maccomber and her cow bell.
Lauren Tweddale who sacrificed her spring break.
Jack and Jane Koning kept us from 'acting out' too much.
Kathie Johnson provided Tee-Shirt flair and ettiquette.
Maria Rydstedt gave up 'Gus Time' to help.
Suzanne Nowak raised money for GVU and promoted Civic while making recycled sweater scarfs (very cool scarfs!).
Maureen Mondry kept the frontline on their toes (and off the desks).
Ed Nelson was responsible for the signs appearing over show hosts' shoulders.
Tari Koziateck lead the troupes in sign design.
Donna Stokes answered phones despite her cast!
Patty Dermody filled her date book while promoting Civic.
Tyson Nayback worked diligently while the rest of us played (Thanks, Tyson!).
Terri Foley stayed to the end (and I think she finished up some knitting).
Kristen Pindar, Teri Kuhlman, Michael Doriean and Michael Hoffman - cheered us on amazed that we could 'get away that' on TV.
