How did you get involved in Attic? How long have you been volunteering with Attic?
Pat: I was an actor in the 2012 production of “Mame,” directed by Carol Jegen. Carol was either the Attic President or the Past President at that time.
Mike: I started volunteering in 2017 when Pat retired. I wanted to get out of the house and be around people.
What are some areas you volunteer with for Attic?
Pat: I'm an usher during performances. I help people find their seats, pass out playbills, and assist with any accommodation patrons may have.
Mike: I help out at "Will Call" for Attic's Box Office. I also help Jim Forbeck with other Box Office tasks during performances as needed.
Do you have a memorable experience of volunteering you’d like to share?
Pat and Mike: We really enjoyed the Volunteer Appreciation Night that Attic hosted, The Baehman Theater (Black Box) was decorated with little tables, tablecloths, flowers and everything. There was also snacks and wine catered by the Board of Directors for Attic Theatre, Inc. This event also announced the Volunteer of the Year Award; the last time we went the award was given to both Jim Forbeck and Ellen Schreiter.
