We are a group of professional stagehands looking to make a difference.
A few things we have done, or are planning to do include:
-Fundraising for local charities
-Teaching workshops on various theatrical aspects within the community and high school theater programs
-Seeking out ways to make theater available to those who otherwise couldnβt afford it
-Monthly service projects to make our community a better place to live
-Promoting tolerance, compassion and understanding towards our LGBT community

A few things to think on the eve of an election and as you go to your polling location. We are on the eve of an historic election. An election that can change the course of not only the country but the world and how AMERICA is seen and Respected; or how Contemptuous we really are. We have an opportunity to stop the hate. We have an opportunity to find the good in our fellow humans, no matter where they originate from, or how they identify in the end we are ALL HUMAN. We have an opportunity to take a step forward, instead of another 3 steps backwards. Earlier today I passed a truck bearing a Trump flag. This flag read β Trump 2020 because F**k YOU and your feelingsβ Another on the side of the truck read βIβm voting for Trump because it pi**es Liberals offβ #1 this election is not about my feelings, however it is about human decency, it is about putting an end to harmful stereotypes, it is about finding a way to safely rebuild once we find a vaccine for Covid-19, It is about BUILDING a BETTER FUTURE FOR EVERYONE! #2 if the reason you are voting for a person is because it βpi**es people offβ you are voting for the wrong reason. If your goal for this election is to alienate people and make America a place where if you donβt look a certain way or think a certain thing you need to fear for your life then you are voting for the WRONG reasons. If you believe that fear and intimidation are appropriate tactics to βLeadβ the country you are voting for the WRONG reason. We have a duty to the future of this country to vote for the people we believe have a forward moving plan, A plan that INCLUDES everyone, a plan that ensures PROSPARITY for everyone, a plan that truly show that America IS a WORLD LEADER and not just the school yard bully. Think about all of that before you vote. Think about all of the people you love and the world you want them to live in.
If you go to your polling place and see voter intimidation or suppression REPORT it. If you feel you have been wrongly denied your right to vote REPORT IT. Letβs show the world that we are a country that wants to lead the world and actually deserves to do it.
Remember no matter what your party affiliation or who you support DO NOT advertise it at the polling place this is known as electioneering and you will be asked to leave because it is illegal.
If you whiteness voter intimidation, harassment, electioneering or suppression In Idaho you can call 208-866-3844. Nationwide hotline 1-833-336-8683. For help in Spanish 1-888-839-8682. I will post local voter protection hotlines for all other states in the comments. Stay safe, Stay Strong, and let us come together and build a better country to live in.
