Let it Snow - office still opens |
Even if there are dire reports about weather in the Northeast, calls and e-mails will usually find the USITT office open and functioning, so don't hesitate to contact staff members. Carol Carrigan, Office Coordinator, said that in the past eight years office functions have not been delayed because of rain, sleet, or even snow. Yes, there is a great deal of the white stuff falling in and around Syracuse, but that does not stop staff from their appointed duties.

ETS-LDI Update |
Volunteers and staff had a great time talking to all who stopped by the USITT booth and were scanned for a chance to win a Conference registration for 2006. The lucky winner is Jason Stefansen of Orlando, Florida. We hope to see him in Louisville in March.

Gulf Coast Support |
It is great when our members tell the world about an interesting or energizing experience, such as Mike Murphy's The Last Word about the Pickled Pepper Players. However, we always like to give extra credit to the people who are even further behind the scenes, such as Karla Murphy who in addition to driving the minivan as a chase vehicle and serving as a major community fund-raiser, also did special performances of The Little Old Lady who Swallowed the Fly for pre-kindergarten audiences during the Gulf Coast tour.
