On another note, please help supply our Costume Work Room. This dedicated space gives students (and interested parents) the chance to be more involved in the costuming process, learning to repair, alter, create, and maintain costumes. 


Please help us to furnish/supply the work room by donating: scissors, sewing notions and extra fabric you or your extended family members no longer need. (cleaning out grandmas sewing room soon?) 


Donated items may be brought to the production team during rehearsal, or may be dropped in the BCHS office labeled "Costume Work Room".
