| It's hard to believe that already, it has been five years since the conception of the Patchwork Players. Throughout these fantastic five we have seen lots of faces, old and new, we have been through a varity of changes, both with us and where we are; but most of all, WE HAVE GROWN. All of us here at Patchwork would like to send out a special thanks to the many parents who have volunteered their time to get us through and to where we are now. Ever since the start we have recieved an outpouring of support, from both parents and the community alike. THANK YOU!! ~Tara Lynn Dimirsky~ FOUNDER & ARTISTIC DIRECTOR |
