OTA Membership
There is
nothing quite like live theatre!
By becoming a Member of OTA you can help ensure that the time-honored
tradition of live productions will continue to be available in our community.
OTA is
celebrating more than 30 years of serving this community with great entertainment and
opportunities. What started as a group of thespians who wanted to share their
love for their craft has evolved into an organization that has survived over the
years with an ever changing dedicated volunteer base.
People have come and gone but the heart of OTA still beats strong in
downtown Sequim. With the move
into the new Main Stage theatre during the 2010-2011 Season, everyone at OTA
is looking forward to building on the traditions and quality productions for
which our local theatre group has become known.
Even though we
have moved into a larger building, the main stage is still nice and intimate. In fact, there truly isn't a bad seat in the house!
No stairs to climb! And we
are now able to offer easily accessible seating for our patrons in wheelchairs.
The
Gathering Hall provides a flexible space for performances or community uses, and
functions as a large lobby area for Main Stage performances.
Our Catering Kitchen and Green Room round out our facilities.
We
hope you'll come "play with us" and become a member of the OTA Family!
All OTA Members enjoy one $2.00 ticket discount per season production,
the OTA newsletters, invitations to our the Annual
Member\Volunteer Picnic and the Annual Meeting (with voting privileges), and
will also receive first option to participate in special events and programming.
General Membership is only $45.00 a year.
Help
us celebrate OTA's new home.

Associate Membership - via volunteer hours
At the September 2011 Annual Meeting, one of the approved Bylaws changes made it
possible for the OTA Board of Directors to establish Membership categories and
criteria. As a result, OTA is happy to announce that, retroactive to September
10, 2011, we have established a new Associate Membership that allows for
OTA Membership to be acquired through volunteer hours as
an option to membership via payment of an annual fee only. A special Task
Force made recommendations for the criteria and it has been approved by the
board. The OTA Executive Committee is authorized to grant Associate Membership
status to all individuals who fulfill the following requirements:
1)
Individual completes a Volunteer Activities time sheet for each calendar month
they do OTA Volunteer work and submit this to the Volunteer Coordinator (thru
the OTA Office) by the 15th of the following month. The sheet will require
details of days and hours worked and the type of work performed.
2) The Volunteer has worked at least 80 documented OTA volunteer hours during a
six (6) month period.
The Associate Membership is an individual
membership and will be good for 365 days from the date it is granted and will be
automatically awarded upon completion of the requirements.
An Associate
Member can not vote on membership matters, nor hold office, however, all other
membership rights and benefits will apply. Associate members will be able to
obtain the member discount on tickets and enjoy Free Preview night tickets for
OTA Productions (OTA Season plays).
So, if you have done any volunteer
work for OTA since September 10, 2011 be sure and pick up a
Volunteer Activities Sheet, fill it out and turn it into
the OTA office immediately. Since we are at the 15th of the month,
Volunteer Activity sheets for work done from Sept. 10 thru the 30th will be
accepted thru the end of October. Starting with October, the 15th of the month
will be the cut off date for turning in your Volunteer Sheets.
We hope
you will all take this opportunity to become an OTA Member and enjoy some of the
benefits that membership provides as a small Thank You for all your
participation!
As always, we do want to hear how we can make your
participation better and more fun! Let us know your ideas!
