"The Adventures of Santa Claus" was a success!

 

Thanks to all who helped make our winter show a success!  Over 500 food items were collected at the door for the Richland Community Food Pantry.  Proceeds from the show were divided between the Food Pantry, the local Salvation Army chapter and the Richland County Performing Arts Council.


Special thanks to Will Buros and all those who put in the time and energy to make the show a reality

 

CP Makes donation to Corey Bobb Memorial Scholarship Fund

The Community Players board voted to donate $1000 from the proceeds of last summer's show "Annie" to the Corey Bobb Memorial Scholarship Fund.  This $500 scholarship is awarded annually to a student pursuing their education in a field related to theatre and the performing arts.
