The second half of 2011 revs up!
Hi, friends! Welcome to our new-look website!
Please take some time to take a look around... more and more material will be added over the next few weeks...
Celebrations are just settling down from the Comedy Festival, where +SQUEAKY CLEAN COMEDY+ was an even bigger hit than we'd hoped it would be. It was great to be able to support 10 comedians and provide a clean option in the festival for those who wanted it.
We're also celebrating moving into our new office in Hawthorn, thanks to our new partnership with Servants Community Housing. And for the first time since we began, we now have two workers paid part time to release them to contribute to the running of the company. Thanks for your continued generosity and financial support in helping to make that happen!
We also have Staff: Irene, Jessica, Jessie, Kara and Shirlaine all came onboard more formally in March and I personally am loving having their new energy in our team. We'll post tidbits of information about them as individuals in the coming months...
Meanwhile, the second half 2011 is gearing up to be our busiest yet. Here's some of what's planned:
