35 & THRIVING
A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR VOLUNTEER FAMILY!
This year, the Freewill Shakespeare Festival turned 35! It was a year of exciting challenges, as we brought the magic of Shakespeare to four different community league locations. This "touring" format was brand new for us, and it wouldn't have been possible without our incredible volunteers!
From set-up to box office, you were there every step of the way. Your dedication and enthusiasm are what make Freewill Shakespeare a success, and we can't thank you enough.
A Special Shout-out to Our Generous Sponsors!
We'd also like to express our sincere gratitude to the following organizations who helped us show our appreciation to our amazing volunteers at the volunteer appreciation party:
Their generous prize donations made the party even more special, and it truly highlights the importance of community support for the arts.
TESTIMONIALS
The volunteer experience was well organized. Expectations were clear for each role. Training was clear and matched the experience at the site. Staff were visible and available. Fellow volunteers were collaborative. The popcorn was consistently delicious. Recommend this as a great volunteer opportunity. - M.M.
It has been a few years since I have been a volunteer with Freewill but it was great to be back. This year’s festival offered a unique experience for volunteers and audiences, as we got to experience the magic isle of The Tempest in four very different communities and performance spaces. It was great to mix with the audience members as we watched the Bard in the great outdoors from our comfy lawn chairs. It was a fun and fulfilling month! - B.G.
Even though this year was a little different than the previous ones, the staff and board members were just as kind and helpful as always. I love seeing familiar faces at the festival every year and meeting new volunteers too. - C.T.
