It's a nice group of people, very welcoming. I'm excited to become part of the Wisconsin Rapids community, which doing theater does.

It's a huge challenge. It is stressful. You can't let up. You have to be on your toes every minute.

I'm getting my theater fix. By far and away, I haven't done anything this challenging and rewarding in many years.

This role was too good to pass up.

Every section of this community has a way to celebrate Derby. For young black people, they cruise.

We want to encourage people to recruit new teams, bring awareness into the community, and raise funds for cancer research, advocacy, patient services, programs and education. We try to have fun with it and really get people into the relay spirit.
