Through the efforts of Friends of the Highlands Summer Festival and Highlands Opera Studio, thousands of dollars have been invested in the past year to help the Festival grow. In addition to the hundreds of donations received from members and corporations, the organization hosted a 50/50 draw during each performance last season, which proved to be very popular and added greatly to the support of the Festival. Sincere thanks to all donors and those who purchase our 50/50 tickets. While some of the Friends of the Highlands Summer Festival donations are used to cover Festival expenses, a large portion of the money is invested in the infrastructure of the Northern Lights Performing Arts Pavilion, improving the facility for all users. Just this year, Friends of the Highlands Summer Festival have joined with the Performing Arts Society and the High School, with the assistance of the Haliburton County Development Corporation, in the purchase of new lighting equipment for the theatre. Donations have also helped the Festival cover the cost of professional directors and actors. All donations to Highlands Summer Festival are eligible for a tax deductible receipt. Managed by the Festival's Board of Directors, the donations help ensure the continued high standards our patrons have come to expect. While donations in any amount are appreciated, donors of $50 or more in a season become members of the Highlands Summer Festival and are eligible to vote at the company's annual general meeting. Suggested donation levels include: Actor--$50; Director--$100; Producer--$250; Executive Producer--$500; Corporate--$1000 or more. If you would like to become a Friend of the Highlands Summer Festival, please complete the form below and return it with your cheque to the address indicated. Please make cheques payable to Highlands Summer Festival. We are now able to issue a tax receipt for your generous contribution. Donations received after the season, will be included in next year's budget. Your donation will help ensure the continued growth of the Highlands Summer Festival. Those who have contributed this year are recognized in the list on the next two pages and on the Festival website, www.highlandssummerfestival.on.ca. We look forward to your ongoing support. Jack Brezina, President, Highlands Summer Festival
