The gathering included a barbecue, AGM, and volunteer appreciation

On Saturday, August 13th, Pivot Theatre officially celebrated its first anniversary. Held at Bethany-Newton United Church, the day included a barbecue and the annual general meeting

Founder and Chair Margaret Shearman also took time out to recognize volunteers who have been intrinsic to Pivot completing the first year. They include a number of people who’ve been with Pivot since Day One, including:

• Heaven Lively
• Makayla Leonard
• Emily Wheeler
• Cindy Atkinson
• Maddie Stenstrom
• Richard Doucette
• Grace Shearman

She also acknowledged other volunteers who’ve come on board since:

• Barb Eisinger
• Miles Murphy
• Leaminn Ma

A special thank you was also extended to Tom Zillich from the Surrey Now-Leader, who’s been instrumental in introducing Pivot to the community.

Finally, everyone who attended was treated to a tour of the new performance space, got to visit and catch up, and meet a couple of Pivot’s new neighbours.
