HELP SELL SEASON TICKETS

We are diligently working towards moving up the season ticket sales process to begin renewals in June, changes in July and new subscribers in August. The box office can use several temporary helpers with this project. You do not have to work the computer system if you are not interested in that area. Some of the areas you can help include preparing the mailings, verifying the orders, being a runner/assistant and "lobby concierge". If you will be available to help in June, July, August, or all three, please contact hlt.comments@yahoo.com for more information.

SHAKESPEARE IN HOLLYWOOD STILL CASTING

VOLUNTEERS WANTED

Highlands Little Theatre welcomes volunteers in every area, however, we have an urgent need in the Box Office and Building Maintenance departments.

The goal in the box office is to expand our hours of operation to every day of the week. We currently are closed for six weeks between the shows, and it is confusing and inconvenient for our patrons. Interested people must be or become members of HLT, be familiar and comfortable working on a PC, or willing to learn, and have experience with customer service and/or a desire to help people. Hours of availability requirements vary, and we can work with most schedules. We will train on our ticket selling system.

Building Maintenance needs several people to share the workload of performing routine upkeep and household repairs on a regular basis. For example, change AC filters and light bulbs monthly, clear roof drains before and after storms, fix leaky faucets, etc. There is a maintenance calendar to assist in keeping on top of these projects. Committee members must be or become HLT members. Membership dues are reasonable, and include supplemental insurance coverage while working here in any capacity.

For more information, please contact Vanessa at 863-385-2175 or email hlt.comments@yahoo.com.
