FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE…
SCHOLARSHIPS AWARDED FOR THEATRE CAMP
REGISTRATIONS FOR CAMP STILL AVAILABLE THROUGH MAY 20
ST. MARY, GA—St. Marys Little Theatre, Lisa Allen Dance Works, and The Friese Studio of Music announced the awarding of three scholarships to this year's Summer Musical Theatre Camp scheduled for June 10-14 and June 17-21. Scholarship recipients included Jillian Draper, Piper Ramsey, and Kaelyn Sosebee.
Registrations to the Theatre Camp are still available through May 20, and can be made at Lisa Allen Dance Works or at The Friese Studio of Music. Camp attendees should be ages 5 to 16.
This year's two-week musical theatre camp is themed "Love Disney," and will incorporate music, dance, and drama with favorite Disney characters played by camp attendees. According to Lisa Allen, owner of Lisa Allen Danceworks, every attendee will be a part of the grand showcase at the end of the two-week camp.
"The 'Love Disney' experience will enhance self expression and help build self confidence while the children learn to sing, dance and act," Allen said. "Even seasoned performers will find the camp refreshing and an opportunity to polish their skills and build their resume."
Allen went on to say that all levels of experience are welcome, even kids who have never performed in front of an audience before.
Megan Friese, owner of The Friese Studio of Music, said, "Last year's theatre camp was so successful, we decided it must be a yearly event. Parents and the public were impressed by how much we accomplished in the two week period, and many of our attendees went on to participate in subsequent performances in and out of our area."
Barbara Ryan, Director of St. Marys Little Theatre (SMLT), said that the 2013 Musical Theatre Camp is an official program of SMLT's outreach to encourage the youth of Camden County to get involved in performing arts.
"Research shows that young people who participate in community theatre have the opportunity to develop skills such as improved communication, critical thinking, and social skills—all key components of any self-development program," Ryan said. "This year's camp will empower children to express themselves physically, emotionally, and intellectually. And the most important thing is that the kids will be having fun, which is what summertime is all about."

TREASURES BY THE TRAX TO BENEFIT CULTURAL ARTS MAY 18, 2013 – 8:00 A.M.
Theatre by the Trax, 1000 Osborne Road, St. Marys, Georgia
ST. MARYS, GA—Three organizations have joined forces to raise funds for performing arts in Coastal Georgia, and the public is invited to participate.
On May 18 at Theatre by the Trax in St. Marys, Georgia, Coastal Georgia Film Alliance and St. Marys Little Theatre will join with Theatre by the Trax to host what organizers are calling "The Mother of All Yard Sales."
Board members from all organizations encourage residents to take advantage of this opportunity to do their spring cleaning and get rid of excess clutter in their homes. Anyone can participate in the "Treasures by the Trax" events in three different ways: Reserve a free vendor space (donation of 20% of proceeds is requested); drop items at Theatre by the Trax ahead of time (to donate all proceeds), or just come and shop til you drop!
St. Marys Little Theatre vice chair L. J. Williams said, "This is a great opportunity for the public to contribute to the cultural landscape of our community while at the same time giving their home a good sprucing up."
According to Doug Vaught, chair of Coastal Georgia Film Alliance, the Alliance plans to use their portion of the funds to promote Coastal Georgia to the international film and television community. St. Marys Little Theatre will fund upcoming productions and children's programs with their portion of the proceeds.
"Often people forget the monetary requirements to keep performing arts alive," St. Marys Little Theatre chair Barbara Ryan said. "Besides costumes, lighting, staging, and props, there is also a need for promotional and educational materials to assure that the public is kept informed about events."
Treasures by the Trax organizers encourage the contribution or sale of furniture, home décor, jewelry, antiques, and collectibles for the day of the event. To reserve a space or arrange a drop-off time for contributions, call 912-552-5559.
For more information, call 912-729-1103.
St. Marys Little Theatre and Coastal Georgia Film Alliance are 501c3 nonprofit organizations.
