OVATION! Musical Theatre Bainbridge Appoints New Board Members

Ovation! Musical Theatre Bainbridge is pleased to announce the appointment of several new board members and the results of its recent board officer elections.

Tom Burt will serve as President, Thom Hamilton as Vice President, Marijane Milton as Treasurer and Laura Harrison as Secretary. Robert Schaub, Ron Milton, Corinna Lapid-Munter and Barbara Klingberg round out the Board of Directors.

"I am extremely excited about the structure of our new board. We have expanded it to add three additional positions and have recruited new, enthusiastic community members who share our passion for creating theatre for and with our neighbors," remarked Burt.

Jon Doll and Peter Denis rolled off the board in 2008, after serving for over five years. "Jon and Peter are two of our original founders and their dedication and involvement in Ovation!'s inception and development have been crucial to the growth of the organization," he added.
