The
Friends of the Centenary Centre are people who
wish to support the Centre. For a small annual
donation you will receive an occasional newsletter
and will also be informed of fund raiser events
organised by the “friends” committee. Being a
“friend” gives you the right to vote at the
Annual General Meeting of the friends and to stand
for election to the committee. The committee is a
fund raising group as well as a voice
for the friends to put ideas and objectives to the
Directors of the Centre for consideration by them.
The Centre is run entirely by volunteers and the
friends provide a lot of the volunteer help to
keep the Centre running. If you would like to be
part of this amazing group of people there are
several aspects you could be involved in.
Most of the work is done on a rota basis and you
can be asked as little or as often as you wish.
Housekeeping
There is a rota for the cleaning of the centre,
small teams work together and average
out at about
once a month for a few hours for each team. The
more people we have the less work.
Refreshments
Served prior to, and during the interval, of most
shows. This could be the teas & coffee or
behind
the bar. Whichever you prefer, or both. Again on a
rota basis
General
maintenance Those little
maintenance jobs that need doing, from changing a
light bulb to
helping to paint the Athol room.
Backstage
Anything from shifting scenery during shows
to safety backstage to helping clear up afterwards.
Meet
&Greet
Looking after our customers, showing them
to their seats, answering queries and knowing
the fire drill.
Lighting
and sound
The “techy” one . Some knowledge would
be an advantage but we have a great team who
will help
show you the ropes.
The
Committee
A small committee. friendly and all with the same
aim, to keep the Centre running
smoothly.
Put your name forward for election before the next
AGM (Usually
in march)
If
you are a volunteer, you are able to watch the
show on the evening (or day) you are on duty, (when
you are free.) Seats
must go firstly to customers who have tickets, you
can then use any seat not taken. For
any further information call Lindsay Quayle 422853
or email lindsays@manx.net
and she will answer any queries or forward your
details to the relevant team leader.
Below, a gallery of a few of our fund raising
events.
