North Frontenac Little Theatre Honouring Its Own

Brian Robertson | Nov 07, 2013

In an awards ceremony slated for November the 16 (which some are dubbing the “It’s about time” awards), the North Frontenac Little Theatre will be honouring six of its own with Lifetime Recognition.

Randomly chosen from over two dozen qualifying members, who include such talented stalwarts as Pam Giroux and family, Nina Jenkins, Claire Graves, Pam Woods and Craig Godfrey, to name a few, this year’s recipients have demonstrated an outstanding contribution to the on-going success of the Little Theatre over an extended period of time.

Because of the high number of members eligible for the award, the plan is for the Recognition Evening to be repeated throughout the course of the next several years, honouring five or six members each year.

It is the hope of the organizers that the NFLT Lifetime Recognition Award’s Evening will deepen a sense of pride in the membership and encourage a new generation to continue to provide quality entertainment to our rural area.

The North Frontenac Little Theatre, in cooperation with the Limestone District School Board, has been presenting live theatre of all genres on the stage of Sharbot Lake High School since 1979.

Recipients of the NFLT Lifetime Recognition Award for the year 2013 include:

John Pariselli, Marjorie Fossey, John and Ann McDougall, Dawn Hansen and Peter Platenius.

All fans and members of the North Frontenac Little Theatre are invited to join in the celebration, which takes place on Saturday, November 16 at the Oso Hall in Sharbot Lake at 7pm. Entertainment and light refreshments will be provided, with a freewill offering at the door and/or a donation to our local food bank.
