Thank you, Don. Thank you, Don. Thank you, Don.

The second annual Day at the Theatre was a huge success. Not only was the play hilarious, the food was great, and we made a lot of money. The profits from the event is estimated at $5,556…….. What an all around great event.

Thanks to all the volunteers who helped make this such a success event His
Also, lets all thank Jacob Jouni who donated all the food for the event. His restaurant is located at 930 N. Central Ave, in Upland. Stop by for lunch or dinner – or use him for your catering needs. He will cater for 25 people -- or for 250 people.
