Special Thanks

Please visit and support our sponsors, listed at the end of the program. 

It would be impossible for our program to run without the dedicated assistance of volunteers. EHPA depends on our families and community members to make it all happen. We would like to thank our Theatre Advisory Group for their time, talent, consistent support, troubleshooting and decision-making.
