What’s better than free food? Free food AND helping a worthy cause!

Garrison Players is hosting its biannual building clean-out on January 28, from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Coffee and donuts will be provided for all volunteers in the morning, and pizza and non-alcoholic drinks will be provided for lunch. The work involves carrying unneeded items outside for eventual disposal, as well as a little light maintenance work—such as installing light bulbs! (No pun intended!)

The clean-out is always a fun time, and it’s a great opportunity to meet new people, learn about Garrison Players, get involved in theater, and help us prepare for upcoming shows by making room in the building for new props, costumes, and dressing areas.

Come join the fun, either for the whole time or even for just an hour or two!

It helps us plan if we know you’re coming but you’re also welcome to just swing by. To R.S.V.P., please contact Barb at recsec@garrisonplayers.org.
