Marshalltown Community Theatre

At our annual meeting, April 27th, we had elections to fill seats for those board members who were leaving the board. We would like to take this opportunity to welcome new board members Jason Kern, Joel Duden, John Gill and Grant Gale. We would also like to thank Peggy Schoer, Ken Walton, Nathan Bloomquist and Vanessa Engel for their time on our board. We would like to reassure you that those leaving the board are not leaving the theatre family. We also voted for officers at our regular board meeting directly following the annual board meeting. Congratulations to Lisa Naig, President; Ken (Hobz) Hooley, VP; Kevin Jensen, Treasurer and Emily Stone, Secretary. Thank you to those who attended the meeting. We look forward to getting back on the stage and entertaining the community.
