FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The Hanover Theatre Announces Annual Meeting Open to the Public
Worcester, Mass. (November 2, 2016) The Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts holds its
2016 annual meeting on Wednesday, November 9. The event takes place in the Myles & C. Jean
McDonough Room at The Hanover Theatre Conservatory and Event Center from 6-8 p.m.
Refreshments and a cash bar are available before the program begins. The annual meeting
includes the president’s report, the annual H. Carter Hunt Volunteer of the Year Award and a
special musical performance by students from the theatre’s Youth Summer Program.
This year’s H. Carter Hunt Volunteer of the Year Award honors Mildred Anderson. Mildred
began volunteering during the theatre’s 2008 inaugural season. In addition to her many
administrative and event-related responsibilities, Mildred’s work ethic and dedication
exemplify the very best of The Hanover Theatre’s volunteer staff, and their desire to help the
theatre grow and thrive as an organization. The Hanover Theatre is grateful to have such a
committed person on its team.
In addition, recognition will be given to outgoing board members, new board members,
committee chairs and employees who have been with the theatre for five or more years. For
more information, contact Nel Lazour, director of development, at 508.471.1770.
