LOCAL HEROES

A special thanks to the following LOCAL HEROS and local businesses who have sponsored various areas of production needs:

"Every week, Pedro Veras, Owner of Wholesome Market, donates healthy snacks and drinks to feed the 60 children and 16 adults involved in The Children's Theatre Company's programs. In addition, he has catered staff training sessions and special events. And, while all this is wonderful, it is the gracious welcome Mr. Veras and his staff show the volunteers picking up the donations that truly earns him their gratitude."
